Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Cisco Small Business RV Series Routers versions RV160, RV260, RV340, and RV345
Description The issue is caused by a stack-based buffer overflow in the SSL VPN module of the Cisco Small Business RV340, RV340W, RV345, and RV345P routers. This can be exploited by a remote attacker using a specially crafted HTTP request, allowing them to execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
