Official description
D-Link DAP-1360 webupg UPGCGI_CheckAuth Numeric Truncation Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of D-Link DAP-1360 routers. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the handling of requests to the /cgi-bin/webupg endpoint. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in an integer overflow before allocating a buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. . Was ZDI-CAN-18423.

The underlying weakness: Numeric Truncation Error
Truncation errors occur when a primitive is cast to a primitive of a smaller size and data is lost in the conversion.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Ensure that no casts, implicit or explicit, take place that move from a larger size primitive or a smaller size primitive.
Timeline
- CVE record published.
- CISA published its SSVC assessment (exploitation: none, automatable: no, technical impact: total).
- Record last changed materially (score, affected products, status or references).
