Detailsinfo

A vulnerability has been found in OpenNDS up to 10.1.2 and classified as critical. This vulnerability affects the function get_query of the file http_microhttpd.c of the component Captive Portal. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a stack-based overflow vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-121. A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function). As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

An issue was discovered in the captive portal in OpenNDS before version 10.1.3. get_query in http_microhttpd.c does not validate the length of the query string of GET requests. This leads to a stack-based buffer overflow in versions 9.x and earlier, and to a heap-based buffer overflow in versions 10.x and later. Attackers may exploit the issue to crash OpenNDS (Denial-of-Service condition) or to inject and execute arbitrary bytecode (Remote Code Execution).

The weakness was released 11/17/2023. The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability was named CVE-2023-41101 since 08/23/2023. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit.

Upgrading to version 10.1.3 eliminates this vulnerability.
