CVE-2026-9628: Stack-based Buffer Overflow in UTT HiPER 1200GW
CVE-2026-9628 is a high-severity stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the UTT HiPER 1200GW device, specifically in an unknown function handling the /goform/formPptpClientConfig component of its Web Management Interface. The vulnerability arises from improper handling of arguments such as PPTP server address, username, password, or tunnel name, which can be manipulated remotely to trigger the overflow. Exploit code has been publicly disclosed, increasing the risk of attack. The vulnerability affects version 2.5.3-170306 of the product. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor. The CVSS 4.0 score is 8.7, indicating high severity with network attack vector and no user interaction required.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in UTT HiPER 1200GW up to version 2.5.3-170306 is a stack-based buffer overflow triggered by manipulation of parameters in the /goform/formPptpClientConfig endpoint of the Web Management Interface. The affected parameters include PPTP server address, username, password, and tunnel name. The flaw allows remote attackers to cause a buffer overflow, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or denial of service. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7, reflecting high impact and ease of exploitation without user interaction. Public exploit code is available, but no vendor patch or official remediation has been published to date.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service on the affected device by exploiting the stack-based buffer overflow in the Web Management Interface. The vulnerability does not require user interaction and can be triggered remotely over the network. The presence of public exploit code increases the likelihood of attacks. The device's confidentiality, integrity, and availability could be severely impacted.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict access to the Web Management Interface, especially the /goform/formPptpClientConfig endpoint, by using network segmentation or firewall rules to limit exposure to trusted administrators only. Monitor for unusual activity targeting this interface. Do not rely on generic mitigations; follow vendor updates closely.
