CVE-2021-4464 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.3/10 on the CVSS scale. FiberHome AN5506-04-FA firmware versions up to and including RP2631 and HG6245D prior to RP2602 contain a stack-based buffer overflow, as the HTTP service ('webs') fails to enforce maximum lengths for Cookie header values. When a cookie longer than 511 bytes is processed, a stack buffer is overrun, leading to a crash or potential control of execution flow.. EPSS estimates a 1.78% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
