Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the 'Webdav_Upload_File' function within the '/cgi-bin/webdav_mgr.cgi' binary of multiple D-Link NAS and NVR models. The vulnerability is triggered by providing an excessively long string to the 'f_file' (filename) argument during a file upload request. Because the application fails to validate the length of this input before copying it to a local stack variable, an attacker can overwrite the function's return address. This can be exploited remotely by an authenticated user to achieve arbitrary code execution or cause a persistent denial of service (system crash). Public exploit code (PoC) has been disclosed.
