Title
Stack-based buffer overflow in TP-Link Archer AX55 v4
Summary
A
stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the EasyMesh module of
TP-Link Archer AX55 v4. When Mesh mode is enabled, a LAN attacker may submit
crafted input that causes the easymesh daemon to crash and may potentially
achieve remote code execution on the device.
Successful
exploitation may cause the EasyMesh daemon to crash and may potentially allow
remote code execution when Mesh mode is enabled. This
may result in high impact to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability
of the affected device.

Title
Hardcoded Shared RSA-1024 Private Key in Web Login in TP-Link RE305 and Archer C7
Summary
A hard-coded
cryptographic key vulnerability exists in TP-Link RE305 V3 and Archer C7 V5.
The same RSA-1024 private key is stored within firmware configuration files and
reused across devices. An attacker who obtains the private key and captures an
HTTP Web UI login session may use the key to decrypt the administrator
password.
Successful
exploitation may disclose the administrator password captured from an HTTP
login session and compromise session confidentiality.
