VAR-201703-0032

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-21 23:37

Buffer overflow in Broadcom ACSD allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string to TCP port 5916. This component is used on routers of multiple vendors including ASUS RT-AC66U and TRENDnet TEW-812DRU. The ASUS RT-AC66U is a dual-band wireless router. ASUS RT-AC66U Broadcom acsd Wireless Channel Service (Wireless Channel Servic) has multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities that allow remote attackers to exploit a vulnerability to submit a malicious request to stop the device from responding or possibly execute arbitrary code. ASUS RT-AC66U is prone to multiple buffer-overflow vulnerabilities. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions. The former is produced by ASUS, and the latter is produced by TRENDnet in the United States. Broadcom ACSD is one of the wireless channel service components. A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Broadcom ACSD component used in the ASUS RT-AC66U and TRENDnet TEW-812DRU. #!/usr/bin/env python

CVE***ASUS RT-AC66U Multiple Buffer Overflows: CVE-2013-4659

Overview:

The ASUS RT-AC66U contains the Broadcom ACSD Wireless binary that is vulnerable to multiple

Buffer Overflow attacks.

Multiple overflows exist in the following software:

- Broadcom acsd - Wireless Channel Service (autochannel&param, autochannel&data, csscan&ifname commands)
