CVE-2026-19508: CWE-119 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer in RDK RDK-B WebUI
CVE-2026-19508 is a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the multipart form-data parser of the RDK-B WebUI component. It affects the file jst_post.c in the version rdkb-2025q4-kirkstone.04.10.26. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit this flaw by sending a crafted multipart/form-data request, potentially causing memory corruption, denial of service, or arbitrary code execution.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves improper restriction of operations within the bounds of a memory buffer (CWE-119) in the multipart form-data parser implemented in jst_post.c of RDK-B WebUI. The flaw allows a remote attacker without authentication to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow by crafting a malicious multipart/form-data HTTP request. Successful exploitation can lead to memory corruption, denial of service, and possibly arbitrary code execution on the affected system. The affected product version is identified as rdkb-2025q4-kirkstone.04.10.26. No CVSS score or vendor remediation information is currently available.
Potential Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability can result in memory corruption and denial of service, disrupting the availability of the RDK-B WebUI service. Additionally, it may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code remotely without authentication, posing a significant security risk to affected systems.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, limit exposure of the RDK-B WebUI to untrusted networks and monitor for suspicious multipart/form-data requests. Avoid deploying this version in sensitive environments without additional protective controls.
