Discussion

D-Link DWL-G650 TIM Information Element Wireless Driver Beacon Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

The D-Link Wireless Device Driver for DWL-G650 devices is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the driver fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

Exploiting this issue potentially allows attackers to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of the kernel hosting the vulnerable driver. Failed attempts will likely crash the kernel, resulting in denial-of-service conditions.

D-Link DWL-G650 6.0.0.18 (Rev. A1) is reported vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
