Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
Flaw remediation directly mitigates this buffer overflow vulnerability by applying firmware patches to affected D-Link routers.
Information input validation checks and sanitizes the submit-url argument in /boafrm/formWanConfigSetup to prevent buffer overflows.
Memory protection mechanisms such as stack canaries, ASLR, and DEP hinder exploitation of the buffer overflow for arbitrary code execution.
Security SummaryAI
CVE-2025-13551 is a buffer overflow vulnerability (CWE-119, CWE-120) identified in D-Link DIR-822K and DWR-M920 routers running firmware versions 1.00_20250513164613 and 1.1.50. The flaw affects an unknown function in the /boafrm/formWanConfigSetup file, where manipulation of the submit-url argument triggers the overflow. Published on 2025-11-23, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network by attackers with low privileges, requiring low complexity and no user interaction. Successful exploitation can result in high impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability, potentially enabling arbitrary code execution or system compromise on affected devices.
Advisories and further details, including potential mitigation guidance, are available in references such as VulDB entries (ctiid.333318, id.333318, submit.693785) and GitHub issues at QIU-DIE/CVE #35 and #46. A public exploit is available and might be used in attacks.
