CVE-2026-108906: Netcore NR268 out-of-bounds read in ARP filter upload

CVE-2026-108906 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.2 · Published 2026-10-12

The Netcore NR268 router's ARP filter configuration upload feature contains a memory leak vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to read sensitive data from the device's memory. By uploading a specially crafted file, an attacker can cause the router to leak adjacent stack memory into logs and configuration files, potentially exposing passwords, cryptographic keys, or other sensitive information stored in memory.

Technologies: Netcore NR268. Vendors: Netcore.

Technical details

The filter_arp_put_file_cgi function in /router/filter_arp_put_file.cgi reads up to 1024-byte chunks from an uploaded file into a 1072-byte stack buffer without null-termination. When fprintf() and fputs() are called on this buffer, if the uploaded chunk is exactly 1024 bytes with no NUL terminator, both string functions will read past the received data into adjacent stack memory, leaking those bytes into stderr logs and the imported configuration file. An authenticated attacker can trigger this by posting multipart data with the field name "put_file".
