Technical details

A classic buffer overflow (CWE-120) exists in the D-Link DI-8003 router, specifically within the firmware version 16.07.26A1. The vulnerability is located in the /tggl.asp endpoint and is caused by inadequate input validation of user-supplied data. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted request to the affected endpoint, leading to a buffer overflow. According to the CVSS metrics provided by CISA-ADP, the primary impact is on system availability (Denial of Service). As the DI-8003 is an End-of-Life (EoL) product, D-Link has stated that no firmware updates will be provided to address this issue.
