NETGEAR XR300 Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

The NETGEAR XR300 is a wireless router from NETGEAR. A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in NETGEAR XR300 v1.0.3.78, which originates from a failure to properly validate the length of the input data via the wla_ssid and wlg_ssid parameters of genie_ap_wifi_change.cgi, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on a system or cause a denial-of-service attack.
