Buffer Overflow

A vulnerability was detected in D-Link DIR-816 1.10CNB05. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file /goform/form2Wl5BasicSetup.cgi of the component goahead. Performing a manipulation of the argument pskValue results in stack-based buffer overflow. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

Null Pointer Dereference
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

Multiple CWE-476 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerabilities were found in GoAhead Web Server up to version 6.0.0 when compiled with the MEGOAHEADREPLACEMALLOC flag. Without a memory notifier for allocation failures, remote attackers can exploit these vulnerabilities by sending malicious requests, leading to a crash and Denial of Service (DoS).

Remedy

It is recommended to apply fixes introduced in version 6.0.1 of GoAhead and use the latest version available as base for building custom web servers.

Null Pointer Dereference
AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

CWE-476 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in the evalExpr() function of GoAhead Web Server (version <= 6.0.0) when compiled with the MEGOAHEADJAVASCRIPT flag. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker with the privileges to modify JavaScript template (JST) files to trigger a crash and cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by providing malicious templates.

Remedy

It is recommended to apply fixes introduced in version 6.0.1 of GoAhead and use the latest version available as base for building custom web servers.

Use After Free, Double Free
AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H

This issue tracks two CWE-416 Use After Free (UAF) and one CWE-415 Double Free vulnerabilities in Goahead versions <= 6.0.0. These are caused by JST values not being nulled when freed during parsing of JST templates. If the MEGOAHEADJAVASCRIPT flag is enabled, a remote attacker with the privileges to modify JavaScript template (JST) files could exploit this by providing malicious templates. This may lead to memory corruption, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) or, in rare cases, code execution, though the latter is highly context-dependent.

Remedy

It is recommended to apply fixes introduced in version 6.0.1 of GoAhead and use the latest version available as base for building custom web servers.
