CVE-2026-0839

8.8 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

This is a remote buffer overflow vulnerability in UTT 进取 520W router firmware version 1.7.7-180627. Attackers can exploit the strcpy function in the /goform/APSecurity endpoint by manipulating the wepkey1 parameter to execute arbitrary code. Organizations using this specific router firmware version are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • UTT 进取 520W
Versions: 1.7.7-180627
Operating Systems: Embedded router firmware
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Affects the specific firmware version mentioned; other versions may also be vulnerable but unconfirmed.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Remote code execution leading to complete device compromise, network infiltration, and potential lateral movement to other systems.

🟠

Likely Case

Remote code execution allowing attackers to take control of the router, intercept network traffic, or use it as a foothold for further attacks.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if network segmentation isolates the router and proper monitoring detects exploitation attempts.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

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

Exploit code is publicly available on GitHub, making attacks straightforward for threat actors.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: None available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch exists as the vendor did not respond to disclosure. Consider replacing the device or applying workarounds.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Disable Remote Management

all

Prevent external access to the vulnerable endpoint by disabling remote administration features.

Access router web interface > Administration > Remote Management > Disable

Network Segmentation

all

Isolate the router from critical network segments to limit potential damage if exploited.

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Replace the affected router with a supported model from a responsive vendor.
  • Implement strict network access controls to limit traffic to the router's management interface.

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check router firmware version via web interface: Login > System > Firmware Version. If version is 1.7.7-180627, device is vulnerable.

Check Version:

No CLI command available; use web interface as described.

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify firmware version has changed from 1.7.7-180627 or that workarounds like remote management disablement are active.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual POST requests to /goform/APSecurity with long wepkey1 parameters
  • Router reboot or crash logs

Network Indicators:

  • Suspicious traffic patterns to router management port (typically 80/443)
  • Exploit kit traffic matching public PoC signatures

SIEM Query:

source="router_logs" AND uri="/goform/APSecurity" AND (param="wepkey1" AND length>100)
