Technical details

A command injection and stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the D-Link DWR-M920 router versions 1.1.50 and 1.1.70. The flaw is located in the sub_41C8E8 function within the /boafrm/formSmsManage component. The application fails to perform length checks or sanitization on the 'action_value' parameter before passing it to the 'sprintf' function (causing a buffer overflow) and subsequently to the 'system' function. A remote attacker with low privileges can exploit this to execute arbitrary shell commands on the underlying operating system. Public exploit code is reportedly available.
