Description:
The issue is related to a buffer copy without checking the size of the input data in the httpd service of the NETGEAR router's firmware. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. The specific flaw exists within the httpd service, which listens on TCP port 80 by default. The issue results from the lack of authentication prior to allowing access to system configuration information. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose stored credentials, leading to further compromise.
