Description
PLANET GS-4210-16P2S firmware before 3.441b260626 contains authenticated stack buffer overflow vulnerabilities in /cgi-bin/dispatcher.cgi. The web_login_first_post handler copies the usrPass POST parameter into a fixed-size stack buffer without length validation, the web_sys_enablePasswd_post handler copies the enbPass POST parameter into a fixed-size stack buffer without length validation, and the web_sys_localUser_post handler copies the usrName and usrPass POST parameters into fixed-size stack buffers without length validation. A remote authenticated attacker can send a crafted request to crash the CGI process or web management service, resulting in denial of service.
