AI-Generated

The Kenwood DNR1007XR devices are vulnerable to an out-of-bounds write issue in the tchdr_bytestream_read function, allowing physically present attackers to execute arbitrary code without authentication. This flaw arises from inadequate validation of user-supplied data, potentially enabling attackers to gain root-level access. Organizations using these devices should prioritize remediation to mitigate the risk of unauthorized code execution.

Original NVD Description

Kenwood DNR1007XR tchdr_bytestream_read Out-Of-Bounds Write Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows physically present attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Kenwood DNR1007XR devices. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the tchdr_bytestream_read function. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-28980.
