A buffer overflow in the httpd daemon on TP-Link TL-WR841N V12 (firmware version 3.16.9) devices allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a GET request to the page for the System Tools of the Wi-Fi network. This affects TL-WR841 V12 TL-WR841N(EU)V12160624 and TL-WR841 V11 TL-WR841N(EU)V11160325 , TL-WR841NV11150616 and TL-WR841 V10 TL-WR841NV10150310 are also affected.

A vulnerability has been found in TP-Link TL-WR841N v11, TL-WR842ND v2 and TL-WR494N v3. The vulnerability exists in the /userRpm/WlanNetworkRpm.htm file due to missing input parameter validation, which may lead to the buffer overflow to cause a crash of the web service and result in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. The attack may be launched remotely. This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
