CVE-2026-36611 Details
Description
Mercusys AC12G (EU) V1 with firmware AC12G(EU)_V1_200909 returns 128 bytes of uninitialized buffer when receiving POST requests without SOAPAction header on UPnP port 1900, exposing internal memory to unauthenticated adjacent network attackers.
A vulnerability exists in the Mercusys AC12G (EU) V1 router, specifically in the UPnP HTTP server on port 1900. When the router receives POST requests without a SOAPAction header, it responds with 128 bytes of uninitialized buffer data. This response includes null-separated parsed header key-value pairs from the request, fragments of HTTP response templates from previous requests, and internal memory contents from the server's buffer management. The vulnerability allows unauthenticated adjacent network attackers to access sensitive internal memory data.
Users are advised to initialize response buffers to zero before use, return a proper HTTP error response (400 Bad Request) when required headers like 'SOAPAction' are missing, and clear response buffers between requests to prevent cross-request data leakage.
