Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the Settings Export CGI handler (/cgi-bin/ExportAllSettings.cgi) of Wavlink WL-WN530BE1-A firmware. The vulnerability stems from unsafe use of strcpy() when processing the HTTP_COOKIE or X-Cmd headers. An attacker can send a specially crafted request over the network to overflow the stack buffer and execute arbitrary code with router privileges.
