Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Security Account Manager (T1003.002); ranked in the top 31% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

A stack overflow vulnerability exists in multiple D-Link router models, including DI-7003GV2.D1 versions 23.08.25D1 and earlier, DI-7100G+V2.D1 versions 23.08.23D1 and earlier, DI-7100GV2.D1 version 23.08.23D1, DI-7200G+V2.D1 versions 23.08.23D1 and earlier, DI-7200GV2.E1 versions 23.08.23E1 and earlier, DI-7300G+V2.D1 version 23.08.23D1, and DI-7400G+V2.D1 versions 23.08.23D1 and earlier. The flaw, tracked as CWE-787, occurs in the ip_position.asp function when processing the ip parameter and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8.

Remote attackers with no authentication or user interaction required can supply a crafted ip value to trigger the overflow and execute arbitrary code on the affected device, resulting in full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Public references consist of GitHub submissions that document the vulnerability details, though no official vendor advisories, patches, or mitigation steps are included in the provided information. The associated EPSS values remain low, with a current score of 0.0810 and a peak of 0.0912.
