Technical details
A denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the U-SPEED N300 router (firmware V1.0.0) due to uncontrolled resource consumption (CWE-400) in the embedded Boa HTTP server. The vulnerability is triggered by sending a high volume of concurrent HTTP requests to arbitrary or non-existent endpoints on the web management interface. This resource exhaustion causes the web server to become unresponsive and may impact broader routing functionality. The attack can be launched remotely over the network without authentication or user interaction. A manual reboot is typically required to restore service, as the device lacks sufficient rate limiting or automated recovery mechanisms for this condition.
Affected products
