Technical details

A classic buffer overflow (CWE-120) exists in the Edimax EW-7478APC firmware version 1.04. The vulnerability is located within the 'formUSBAccount' function of the '/goform/formUSBAccount' file, which serves as a POST request handler. By manipulating the 'UserName' or 'Password' arguments in a POST request, an attacker can overflow a memory buffer. This attack can be carried out remotely, though it typically requires low-level authentication (PR:L). Successful exploitation could lead to full system compromise or a denial of service. As of the advisory date, the vendor has not responded to disclosure attempts, and no patch is currently available.
