The Alcatel Lucent I-240W-Q GPON ONT using firmware version 3FE54567BOZJ19 is vulnerable to a stack buffer overflow via crafted HTTP POST request sent by a remote, unauthenticated attacker to /GponForm/fsetup_Form. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to potentially execute arbitrary code.
A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function).
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
