CVE-2025-70221
Published: 04 March 2026
Description
Stack buffer overflow vulnerability in D-Link DIR-513 v1.10 via the curTime parameter to goform/formLogin.
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
Directly prevents stack buffer overflow by requiring validation of the curTime parameter in the goform/formLogin endpoint.
Mitigates exploitation of the stack buffer overflow through memory safeguards such as stack canaries and non-executable stacks.
Addresses the CVE by mandating timely remediation via vendor patches for the D-Link DIR-513 v1.10 firmware vulnerability.
Security SummaryAI
CVE-2025-70221 is a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CWE-121) affecting the D-Link DIR-513 router in version 1.10. The issue arises in the handling of the curTime parameter sent to the goform/formLogin endpoint, allowing attackers to trigger a buffer overflow condition. Published on 2026-03-04, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8, reflecting its critical severity due to network accessibility, low attack complexity, and no requirements for privileges or user interaction.
The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by unauthenticated attackers over the network with no privileges required. Successful exploitation enables high-impact outcomes, including arbitrary code execution, data disclosure, modification of system integrity, and denial of service, as indicated by the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
