CVE-2026-6014: Buffer Overflow in D-Link DIR-513
CVE-2026-6014 is a high-severity buffer overflow vulnerability in the D-Link DIR-513 router firmware version 1. 10. The flaw exists in the formAdvanceSetup function of the /goform/formAdvanceSetup POST request handler, where manipulation of the 'webpage' argument can trigger a buffer overflow. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely without user interaction and requires low attack complexity and privileges. The affected product is no longer supported by the vendor, and no official patch or remediation has been provided. Although an exploit has been published, there are no confirmed reports of exploitation in the wild.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a buffer overflow in the formAdvanceSetup function of the D-Link DIR-513 router firmware version 1.10. The issue arises from improper handling of the 'webpage' argument in the POST request handler at /goform/formAdvanceSetup, allowing remote attackers to cause a buffer overflow. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.7, indicating high severity with network attack vector, no user interaction required, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The product affected is no longer maintained by D-Link, and no official fix or patch is available. Exploit code has been published, but no active exploitation has been confirmed.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow a remote attacker to cause a buffer overflow on the affected device, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or denial of service. The impact affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device. Since the device is no longer supported, affected users cannot rely on vendor patches to remediate the issue.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation is available from the vendor as the affected product is no longer supported. Users should consider discontinuing use of the vulnerable device or isolating it from untrusted networks to reduce exposure. Monitoring for unusual activity related to the device is advisable. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance if any becomes available.
