Description

The Intersil isl3893 extensions for Boa 0.93.15, as used on the FreeLan RO80211G-AP and other devices, do not prevent stack writes from entering memory locations used for string constants, which allows remote attackers to change the admin password stored in memory via a long username in an HTTP Basic Authentication request.
