CVE-2025-10756

8.8 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

A buffer overflow vulnerability in UTT HiPER 840G routers allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by manipulating the tempName parameter in the /goform/getOneApConfTempEntry endpoint. This affects all versions up to 3.1.1-190328. Attackers can exploit this without authentication to potentially take full control of affected devices.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • UTT HiPER 840G
Versions: Up to and including 3.1.1-190328
Operating Systems: Embedded router firmware
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All devices running affected firmware versions are vulnerable by default. The vulnerable endpoint is accessible via web interface.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Remote code execution leading to complete device compromise, network infiltration, data exfiltration, and use as pivot point for lateral movement.

🟠

Likely Case

Remote code execution resulting in device takeover, configuration changes, credential theft, and deployment of persistent malware.

🟢

If Mitigated

Denial of service or limited information disclosure if exploit fails or is partially mitigated by network controls.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Proof of concept exploit code is publicly available on GitHub. The vulnerability requires no authentication and has simple exploitation requirements.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: None available

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

No official patch available. Contact vendor UTT for firmware updates. If unavailable, implement workarounds or replace hardware.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Network Access Control

linux

Block external access to router web interface and restrict internal access to trusted IPs only.

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -s TRUSTED_IP -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -s TRUSTED_IP -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j DROP

Web Application Firewall

all

Deploy WAF rules to block requests containing buffer overflow patterns to the vulnerable endpoint.

ModSecurity rule: SecRule REQUEST_URI "@contains /goform/getOneApConfTempEntry" "id:1001,phase:1,deny,status:403"

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate affected routers in separate VLAN with strict network segmentation
  • Implement outbound traffic monitoring for suspicious connections from router IPs

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check firmware version via web interface at System > System Info or via SSH: cat /etc/version

Check Version:

ssh admin@router-ip 'cat /etc/version' or check web interface

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify firmware version is above 3.1.1-190328. Test endpoint access: curl -X POST http://router-ip/goform/getOneApConfTempEntry

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • HTTP POST requests to /goform/getOneApConfTempEntry with long tempName parameter
  • Unusual process execution or system command logs from router

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual outbound connections from router IP
  • Traffic spikes to/from router management interface

SIEM Query:

source="router-logs" AND uri="/goform/getOneApConfTempEntry" AND (param_length(tempName) > 100 OR status=500)
