CVE-2026-18897: UTT HiPER 1250GW getOneApConfTempEntry strcpy stack-based overflow

A vulnerability was identified in UTT HiPER 1250GW up to v3.2.7-210907-180535. The impacted element is the function strcpy of the file /goform/getOneApConfTempEntry. The manipulation of the argument tempName leads to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

A remotely reachable flaw in the UTT HiPER 1250GW can overflow device memory when processing a crafted tempName value. Successful exploitation could disrupt the gateway or compromise its confidentiality and integrity. Public proof-of-concept material increases risk, but the supplied sources do not establish active exploitation or identify a vendor fix.

Executive priority

Treat confirmed affected, reachable devices as an urgent remediation item because compromise could affect gateway confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Prioritize internet-facing systems first. Where no vendor-supported fix can be verified, reduce reachability immediately and evaluate isolation or replacement while monitoring for suspicious activity.

Technical view

The /goform/getOneApConfTempEntry handler reportedly passes attacker-controlled tempName data to strcpy, causing a stack-based buffer overflow. The CVSS v2 vector indicates network access, low complexity, single authentication, and complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. Reported affected firmware is up to v3.2.7-210907-180535.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to UTT HiPER 1250GW deployments running the reported affected firmware where the vulnerable management handler is reachable. Internet-accessible or broadly reachable administration interfaces present greater concern. The supplied evidence does not establish how commonly the product is deployed or whether default configurations expose the endpoint.

Exploitation context

Public proof-of-concept material is referenced, making independent reproduction more plausible. However, this CVE is not identified as CISA KEV, and the supplied sources provide no evidence of active exploitation. The report says the vendor did not respond, leaving patch availability and official remediation unconfirmed.

Researcher notes

The root cause is reported as unbounded copying into stack memory through strcpy. Evidence supports remote initiation and public proof-of-concept availability, but not exploitation in the wild. Vendor confirmation, patched-version information, endpoint authentication behavior, and reliable indicators of compromise are absent from the supplied bundle.

Mitigation direction

  • Inventory UTT HiPER 1250GW devices and record their exact firmware versions.
  • Restrict management interfaces to trusted administrative networks and authenticated operators.
  • Block unnecessary access to the affected handler at network or reverse-proxy controls.
  • Check UTT guidance for fixed firmware or supported mitigations before applying changes.
  • Isolate or replace exposed devices if no verified fixed firmware is available.
  • Monitor gateways for crashes, restarts, configuration changes, and unusual management requests.

Validation and detection

  • Confirm each device model and firmware version through trusted inventory or administrative records.
  • Determine whether the management interface is reachable from the internet or untrusted networks.
  • Verify authentication requirements and access-control rules protecting the affected handler.
  • Review device and perimeter logs for unusual requests, crashes, or unexplained restarts.
  • Confirm any proposed firmware version or mitigation against current vendor guidance.
  • Use safe, authorized testing without sending overflow payloads to production devices.
