MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
TRENDnet TEW-755AP version 1.11B03
TRENDnet TEW-755AP2KAC version 1.11B03
TRENDnet TEW-821DAP2KAC version 1.11B03
TRENDnet TEW-825DAP version 1.11B03
Description:
A Format String issue exists, which could let a remote malicious user cause a denial of service due to a logic bug at address 0x40dcd0 when calling fprintf with "%s: key len = %d, too long
" format. The two variables seem to be put in the wrong order. The issue could be triggered by sending the POST request to "apply cgi" with a long and unknown key in the request body.
Recommendations:
For TRENDnet TEW-755AP version 1.11B03, consider disabling the
apply cgi endpoint until a patch is available.
For TRENDnet TEW-755AP2KAC version 1.11B03, consider disabling the apply cgi endpoint until a patch is available.
For TRENDnet TEW-821DAP2KAC version 1.11B03, consider disabling the apply cgi endpoint until a patch is available.
For TRENDnet TEW-825DAP version 1.11B03, consider disabling the apply cgi endpoint until a patch is available.
As a temporary workaround, avoid using the apply cgi endpoint with a long and unknown key in the request body until the issue is resolved. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
