CVE-2018-16596 is a stack-based buffer overflow in the LAN UPnP service of Swisscom Internet-Box (2, Standard, Plus) prior to v09.04.00 and Internet-Box light prior to v08.05.02. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker within the local network to execute remote code by sending a crafted UDP packet to port 1900. While the CVSS score is 7.5 (HIGH), the exploit success rate is not 100% due to ASLR, often leading to a Denial of Service for the UPnP service. There is no known active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this vulnerability.
