CVE-2024-57480: n/a
H3C N12 V100R005 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability due to the lack of length verification in the AP configuration function. Attackers who successfully exploit this vulnerability can cause the remote target device to crash or execute arbitrary commands by sending a POST request to /bin/webs.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in H3C N12 V100R005 arises from a lack of length verification in the AP configuration function, resulting in a buffer overflow. An attacker can exploit this remotely by sending a specially crafted POST request to the /bin/webs endpoint. Successful exploitation may cause the device to crash or allow arbitrary command execution, compromising system control. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), reflecting network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Potential Impact
If exploited, this vulnerability can lead to a complete compromise of the affected device, including remote code execution and denial of service through crashes. The attacker can gain unauthorized control, potentially impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device and its network environment.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the affected device's management interfaces and monitor for suspicious POST requests to /bin/webs. Avoid exposing the device to untrusted networks.
