CVE-2025-70232 is a critical-severity Stack-based Buffer Overflow (CWE-121) vulnerability in Dlink Dir-513 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 45.6th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SI-16 (Memory Protection).

Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-70232 is a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CWE-121) in D-Link DIR-513 router version 1.10. The flaw occurs via the curTime parameter sent to the goform/formSetMACFilter endpoint. 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), marking it as critical, and was published on 2026-03-05T19:16:01.200.

An unauthenticated remote attacker with network access can exploit this vulnerability with low attack complexity and no user interaction. Exploitation enables high-impact consequences across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution on the device.
