The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

The weakness was presented 11/07/2016 by Pedro Ribeiro with Agile Information Security as [CVE-2016-6563 / VU#677427]: Dlink DIR routers HNAP Login stack buffer overflow as not defined mailinglist post (Full-Disclosure). The advisory is shared at seclists.org. The public release happened without involvement of Dlink. The exploitation appears to be easy. The attack needs to be initiated within the local network. The exploitation doesn't need any form of authentication. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available.

The mailinglist post contains the following remark:

Dlink did not respond to my or CERT's request for information, so no firmware fix is available at the time of writing. Given that this vulnerability can only be exploited in the LAN, it is recommended to have a strong wireless password to prevent untrusted clients from connecting to the router.
