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-2024-22852 is a critical-severity Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787) vulnerability in Dlink Go-Rt-Ac750 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 36% 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.
D-Link Go-RT-AC750 routers running firmware GORTAC750_A1_FW_v101b03 contain a stack-based buffer overflow in the genacgi_main function. The flaw is tracked as CVE-2024-22852, carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8, and is classified under CWE-787 as an out-of-bounds write that permits remote attackers to enable the telnet service by supplying a crafted payload.
An unauthenticated attacker with network access can send a malicious request that overflows the stack buffer, allowing arbitrary code execution or direct activation of the telnet daemon without any user interaction or credentials. Successful exploitation grants the attacker full control over the device, including the ability to intercept traffic or pivot into the local network.
D-Link has published a security bulletin addressing the issue, although the references do not detail specific patch versions or firmware updates beyond the general advisory link. The 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.

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.
