CVE-2024-9570
Dlink
CVE-2024-9570: A critical buffer overflow vulnerability exists in D-Link DIR-619L B1 routers. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Specifically, the vulnerability lies in the formEasySetTimezone
function within the /goform/formEasySetTimezone
file when handling the curTime
argument. Given the publicly available exploit and a SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) of 77, immediate patching or mitigation is strongly advised to protect against potential remote code execution. The buffer overflow can be triggered remotely, making it a high-risk vulnerability. While not exceeding the critical threshold of 80 on the SVRS, its proximity and active exploits make it a significant threat. Unpatched, this flaw could result in complete device compromise.
