VAR-200803-0231
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:07Unspecified vulnerability in Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station Firmware 7.3.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file sharing hang) via a crafted AFP request, related to "input validation.". Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station is a small wireless access solution.
Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station has a vulnerability in processing malformed requests. If a special AFP request is sent to the device, file sharing will become unresponsive. AirPort Extreme running firmware versions prior to 7.3.1 are affected. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
A new version (0.9.0.0 - Release Candidate 1) of the free Secunia PSI has been released. The new version includes many new and advanced features, which makes it even easier to stay patched.
SOLUTION: Update to one of the following firmware versions: * AirPort Extreme with 802.11n (Fast Ethernet) 7.3.1 * AirPort Extreme with 802.11n (Gigabit Ethernet) 7.3.1
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: The vendor credits Alex deVries.
