CVE-2020-15636

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of NETGEAR R6400, R6700, R7000, R7850, R7900, R8000, RS400, and XR300 routers with firmware 1.0.4.84_10.0.58. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the check_ra service. A crafted raePolicyVersion in a RAE_Policy.json file can trigger an overflow of a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-9852.

Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en instalaciones afectadas de enrutadores NETGEAR R6400, R6700, R7000, R7850, R7900, R8000, RS400 y XR300 con versiones de firmware 1.0.4.84_10.0.58. No es requerida una autenticación para explotar esta vulnerabilidad. El fallo específico se presenta dentro del servicio check_ra. Una raePolicyVersion diseñada en un archivo RAE_Policy.json puede desencadenar un desbordamiento de un búfer en la región stack de la memoria de longitud fija. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto de root. Fue ZDI-CAN-9852.
