Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A vulnerability has been found in H3C GR-5400AX up to 100R008 and classified as critical. This vulnerability affects the function Edit_List_SSID of the file /goform/aspForm. The manipulation of the argument param leads to buffer overflow. The attack needs to be approached within the local network.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Buffer overflow vulnerability in H3C GR-5400AX routers (versions up to 100R008) in the Edit_List_SSID function of /goform/aspForm. The 'param' argument is not properly validated, allowing a local network attacker to overflow a buffer, potentially leading to code execution or denial of service.

MitigationApply vendor firmware update beyond version 100R008 when available. Restrict access to the device's management interface to trusted local network users only.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify device model
    Access the router's web管理界面 (typically at 192.168.1.1) or log via SSH/Telnet and check the model information in the system status or device info page
    Affected if Device is not an H3C GR-5400AX, then not affected by this specific CVE
  2. Check firmware version
    In the router's web interface, navigate to System Settings or Status page to view the firmware version. Alternatively, access via CLI and use command like 'display version' or 'show firmware-version'
    Affected if Firmware version is 100R008 or lower (the vulnerability affects versions up to and including 100R008)
  3. Verify Edit_List_SSID function exposure
    Confirm the router's web interface at /goform/aspForm is accessible from your network. This is the endpoint containing the vulnerable Edit_List_SSID function
    Affected if The /goform/aspForm endpoint responds and accepts the 'param' argument, indicating the vulnerable function is exposed
  4. Check network accessibility of management interface
    Determine if the router's HTTP/HTTPS management port (typically 80/443) is listening on interfaces accessible to untrusted network segments. Use 'netstat -an' or similar to check listening ports and their bindings
    Affected if The management web interface is reachable from network segments beyond trusted local users, increasing attack surface

You are affected if you have an H3C GR-5400AX router running firmware version 100R008 or lower, and the router's web management interface (/goform/aspForm) is accessible from your network where an attacker could send a crafted 'param' argument to trigger the buffer overflow in Edit_List_SSID.

Mitigation

Apply vendor firmware update beyond version 100R008 when available. Restrict access to the device's management interface to trusted local network users only.
