Description
PLANET GS-4210-16P2S V3 firmware before 3.441b260626 contains authenticated stack buffer overflow and null pointer dereference vulnerabilities in /cgi-bin/dispatcher.cgi. The web_radiusSrv*_post family of handlers copies the radKey, radKey_0, radDftParamKey, radName, and radIp POST parameters into fixed-size stack buffers without length validation, and additionally dereferences radName and radIp without verifying their presence in the request. A remote authenticated attacker can send crafted requests to crash the CGI process or web management service, resulting in denial of service.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to send crafted POST requests to /cgi-bin/dispatcher.cgi that copy the radKey, radKey_0, radDftParamKey, radName, and radIp parameters into fixed-size stack buffers without length validation and dereference radName and radIp without ensuring they are present. These actions trigger a stack buffer overflow and a null pointer dereference, causing the CGI process or web management service to crash. Because the flaw requires valid credentials before exploitation, the denial of service can disrupt network traffic management until the device is restarted.

Affected Systems

PLANET Technology Corp.'s GS-4210-16P2S network appliance running firmware versions prior to 3.441b260626 is affected. No other vendor or product is known to be impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 6.9 the vulnerability has moderate severity. The EPSS score of 0.00433 (0.43%) indicates a very low exploitation probability, and the flaw is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, indicating no known widespread exploitation. Attackers need valid credentials and access to the web interface; once authenticated, they can send crafted requests to trigger a crash, resulting in a DoS.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to firmware version 3.441b260626 or later.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, block or restrict access to the web_radiusSrv handlers or disable RADIUS POST functionality via firewall rules.
  • Continuously monitor system logs for crashes of dispatcher.cgi and verify that the device is restarted after each failure.
