Description

A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the GoAhead-Webs HTTP daemon on KuWFi 4G LTE AC900 devices with firmware 1.0.13. The /goform/formMultiApnSetting handler uses sprintf() to copy the user-supplied pincode parameter into a fixed 132-byte stack buffer with no bounds checks.…

This allows an attacker to corrupt adjacent stack memory, crash the web server, and (under certain conditions) may enable arbitrary code execution.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

prevent

Requires validation and bounds checking of user-supplied pincode input to prevent stack buffer overflow in the /goform/formMultiApnSetting handler.

prevent

Provides memory protection mechanisms such as stack canaries and non-executable stacks to block exploitation of the stack-based buffer overflow.

prevent

Ensures timely flaw remediation by patching the unsafe sprintf usage without bounds checks in the GoAhead-Webs HTTP daemon.

Security SummaryAI

CVE-2025-68706 is a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the GoAhead-Webs HTTP daemon on KuWFi 4G LTE AC900 devices with firmware version 1.0.13. The issue resides in the /goform/formMultiApnSetting handler, which employs sprintf() to copy the user-supplied pincode parameter into a fixed 132-byte stack buffer without bounds checking, as classified under CWE-121 (Stack-based Buffer Overflow). Published on 2025-12-29, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).

An unauthenticated attacker with network access can exploit this vulnerability by submitting a specially crafted HTTP request containing an overly long pincode parameter. This triggers buffer overflow, corrupting adjacent stack memory and enabling denial-of-service via web server crashes. Under certain conditions, the overflow may facilitate arbitrary code execution.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
Why these techniques?

Unauthenticated stack-based buffer overflow in public-facing HTTP daemon (/goform/formMultiApnSetting) exploitable via crafted HTTP request for DoS or potential RCE, directly enabling T1190: Exploit Public-Facing Application.
