Buffer overflow in the web-based management interface on the Cisco Linksys WRT54GC router with firmware before 1.06.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device crash) via a long string in a POST request.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
