An issue in the firmware update process of TP-Link TL-WR941ND V2/V3 up to 3.13.9 and TL-WR941ND V4 up to 3.12.8 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via uploading a crafted firmware image.

TP-Link TL-WR940N is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the ipAddrDispose function. By sending specially crafted ICMP echo request packets, a remote authenticated attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with elevated privileges.
