CVE-2022-41017
CWE-120Published: January 26, 2023· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
Several stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities exist in the DetranCLI command parsing functionality of Siretta QUARTZ-GOLD G5.0.1.5-210720-141020. A specially-crafted network packet can lead to arbitrary command execution. An attacker can send a sequence of requests to trigger these vulnerabilities.This buffer overflow is in the function that manages the 'vpn basic protocol (l2tp|pptp) name WORD server WORD username WORD passsword WORD firmwall (on|off) defroute (on|off) localip A.B.C.D' command template.
Risk Analysis
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the DetranCLI command parsing of Siretta QUARTZ-GOLD, which can be triggered by sending malicious network packets. This flaw enables arbitrary command execution, posing a critical risk to device integrity. The 9.8 CVSS score highlights the severity of this remote code execution vulnerability.
No public exploit is known to exist, and the vulnerability is not in the KEV database. It is considered remotely exploitable due to the network-based attack vector.
Apply the latest firmware updates provided by the manufacturer. Implement network segmentation to limit exposure of the device's management functions.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2022-41017 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.
