CVE-2021-27246 (GCVE-0-2021-27246)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2021-04-14 15:45 – Updated: 2024-08-03 20:48
VLAI?
Summary
This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of TP-Link Archer A7 AC1750 1.0.15 routers. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the handling of MAC addresses by the tdpServer endpoint. A crafted TCP message can write stack pointers to the stack. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the root user. Was ZDI-CAN-12306.
