VAR-201903-0907
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-01-30 20:28An exploitable buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the PubNub message handler Insteon Hub 2245-222 - Firmware version 1012. Specially crafted commands sent through the PubNub service can cause a stack-based buffer overflow overwriting arbitrary data. An attacker can send an authenticated HTTP request at 0x9d014e4c the value for the flg key is copied using strcpy to the buffer at $sp+0x270. This buffer is 16 bytes large, sending anything longer will cause a buffer overflow. InsteonHub is an Insteon central controller from Insteon, USA. This product can remotely control light bulbs, wall switches, air conditioners, etc. in the home. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability to cover any data by sending an authenticated request
