CVE-2026-7513
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 · uneditedA vulnerability has been found in UTT HiPER 1200GW up to 2.5.3-170306. The impacted element is the function strcpy of the file /goform/formRemoteControl. The manipulation leads to buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
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 confidenceA buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the strcpy function within the /goform/formRemoteControl web interface component of UTT HiPER 1200GW routers up to version 2.5.3-170306. The use of the unsafe strcpy function allows overflow of a fixed-size buffer via crafted input, potentially enabling remote code execution. The vulnerability is exploitable remotely and a public exploit exists.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify device modelAccess the router web interface or check device label to confirm model is UTT HiPER 1200GW. Alternatively, run 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' or check SNMP sysDescr if you have CLI access.Affected if Device is not a UTT HiPER 1200GW router, then it is not affected by this specific CVE.
-
Check firmware versionLog into the router web interface and look for the firmware version in the system status or administration page. The vulnerable version is any version up to and including 2.5.3-170306.Affected if Firmware version is 2.5.3-170306 or earlier.
-
Verify remote management is enabledIn the router web interface, navigate to the remote management or web service settings. Look for options like 'Enable Remote Management', 'Allow Remote Web Access', or similar settings that control access to the /goform/* endpoints from WAN.Affected if Remote management interface is enabled and accessible from WAN or untrusted networks.
-
Test for vulnerable endpoint accessibilityAttempt to access http://<routerWANIP>/goform/formRemoteControl from a network outside the local LAN. A 404 or authentication prompt indicates the endpoint exists; connection timeout or refusal means it may be disabled.Affected if The /goform/formRemoteControl endpoint is reachable from an untrusted network without additional authentication barriers.
The device is affected if it is a UTT HiPER 1200GW router running firmware version 2.5.3-170306 or earlier AND the web interface with the vulnerable formRemoteControl component is accessible from untrusted networks.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataApply vendor firmware update when available; if no patch exists, disable remote management interface and implement network segmentation to limit exposure. Monitor for indicators of compromise given public exploit availability.
