This vulnerability involves a buffer overflow triggered by manipulating the selSSID argument in the formWlSiteSurvey function within the POST request handler of Edimax BR-6675nD firmware version 1.12. The flaw allows remote attackers to potentially execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service due to improper handling of input data. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.7, indicating high severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vendor has not responded to the disclosure, and no patch or mitigation has been provided.

Successful exploitation of this buffer overflow vulnerability could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or disrupt the device's normal operation, impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected router. Given the high CVSS score and remote attack vector, the risk to affected devices is significant. However, there are no known exploits in the wild at this time.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since the vendor has not responded and no official fix is available, users should consider mitigating exposure by restricting network access to the affected device, disabling vulnerable services if possible, or replacing the device with a secure alternative until a patch is released.
