CVE-2025-15608 (GCVE-0-2025-15608)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-03-20 16:31 – Updated: 2026-08-12 18:56

Title

Buffer Overflow in Network Probe Handling Function of TP-Link Archer AX53 + Archer AX55

Summary

This vulnerability in AX53 v1, AX55 v4 and AX55 v4.6 results from insufficient input sanitization in the device’s probe handling logic, where unvalidated parameters can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow that causes the affected service to crash and, under specific conditions, may enable remote code execution through complex heap-spray techniques. Successful exploitation may result in repeated service unavailability and, in certain scenarios, allow an attacker to gain control of the device.

Severity

7.7 (High)

GHSA-6MH6-Q22W-5C4P

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-20 18:31 – Updated: 2026-07-13 21:31

Details

This vulnerability in AX53 v1 results from insufficient input sanitization in the device’s probe handling logic, where unvalidated parameters can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow that causes the affected service to crash and, under specific conditions, may enable remote code execution through complex heap-spray techniques.

Successful exploitation may result in repeated service unavailability and, in certain scenarios, allow an attacker to gain control of the device.

Severity
