Stack-based buffer overflow in the unique_service_name function in ssdp/ssdp_server.c in the SSDP parser in the portable SDK for UPnP Devices (aka libupnp, formerly the Intel SDK for UPnP devices) 1.3.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long DeviceType (aka urn) field in a UDP packet.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Exploit vector is a UDP packet targeting the SSDP parser; detect anomalously long DeviceType (urn) fields in SSDP UDP traffic ↗
- →Vulnerable function is unique_service_name() in ssdp/ssdp_server.c within libupnp 1.3.1; focus code/binary analysis and runtime monitoring on this function for stack-based buffer overflow conditions ↗
- →Attack surface is malicious SSDP requests over the network; monitor for oversized or malformed SSDP messages, particularly those with excessively long urn/DeviceType fields ↗
- ·GUPnP is NOT affected — it is an independent UPnP implementation entirely separate from libupnp; do not conflate the two in detection or patching scope ↗
- ·libupnp is not shipped in any Red Hat Enterprise Linux version, so RHEL-based systems are not exposed via the OS vendor package ↗
- ·Exposure extends beyond OS packages — libupnp is embedded in network devices and media/file-sharing applications from multiple vendors; inventory all third-party products for bundled libupnp usage ↗

libupnp: Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in unique_service_name() by processing specially-crafted SSDP request (VU#922681)
Stack-based buffer overflow in the unique_service_name function in ssdp/ssdp_server.c in the SSDP parser in the portable SDK for UPnP Devices (aka libupnp, formerly the Intel SDK for UPnP devices) 1.3.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long DeviceType (aka urn) field in a UDP packet.
Statement: Not vulnerable. This issue did not affect GUPnP, which is an independent implementation of the UPnP standard, entirely different from libupnp. libupnp, while affected, is not provided by any version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

CVE-2012-5962 Portable SDK for UPnP Devices Contains Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
CVE-2012-5962: Portable SDK for UPnP Devices Contains Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
The Portable Software Developer Kit (SDK) for Universal Plug-n-Play (UPnP) Devices contains a libupnp library, originally known as the Intel SDK for UPnP Devices, which is vulnerable to multiple stack-based buffer overflows when handling malicious Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP) requests. This library is used in several vendor network devices, in addition to media streaming and file sharing applications. These vulnerabilities were disclosed on January 29th, 2013 in a CERT Vulnerability Note, VU#922681, which can be viewed at http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/922681 . Cisco is currently evaluating products for possible exposure to these vulnerabilities. This advisory is available at the following lin

Multiple stack-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way SSDP server component of libupnp, the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) software development kit (SDK), performed assigment of various fields (like DeviceType, DeviceUDN or Service Type) to the SSDP event structure based on service name string. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted SSDP request that, when processed in an application linked against libupnp would lead to that application crash or, potentially, arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running the a
