CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HCVSS and EPSS are reproduced from their sources (NVD, FIRST EPSS). Risk Priority is our own derived reading, not an NVD score.
Summary
CVE-2024-22751 is a critical-severity Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787) vulnerability in Dlink Dir-882 A1 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Security Account Manager (T1003.002); ranked in the top 33% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-15 (Development Process, Standards, and Tools) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2024-22751 is a stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-787) present in the sub_477AA0 function of D-Link DIR-882 firmware version DIR882A1_FW130B06. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8, reflecting network attack vector, low complexity, and no required authentication or user interaction.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a crafted request that triggers the overflow, resulting in arbitrary code execution, information disclosure, or a denial-of-service condition on the affected router. Because the device is typically internet-facing, the vulnerability can be reached directly from the WAN without prior access.
D-Link’s security bulletin page and the accompanying technical write-up on GitHub indicate that firmware updates or configuration changes should be applied; however, the references do not enumerate specific fixed versions or work-arounds beyond the general advisory. The associated EPSS score has remained flat at 0.0564 with no material increase since disclosure.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation (including fuzzing and bounds checks) finds out-of-bounds write flaws before deployment.
Requiring documented secure-development standards and tools can mandate bounds-checked coding practices that avoid the weakness.
Input validation can structurally reject or sanitize data that would otherwise trigger an out-of-bounds write.
Memory-protection mechanisms limit the exploitability and blast radius of a successful out-of-bounds write.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Vulnerability scanning and recording can discover out-of-bounds write flaws so they can be remediated.
Patching or replacing vulnerable software directly eliminates known instances of this coding weakness.
Secure-development practices (static analysis, bounds checking, code review) are the primary means of preventing out-of-bounds writes.
