D-Link DAP-3662 rev.A Access Point Firmware 1.02 Description

Fixes:

Buffer overflow:
- The web server for D-Link Access Points has a buffer overflow vulnerability triggered while parsing the dlink _uid cookie (CVE-2016-1558)
- Impact: APs may be exposed to possibilities leading to abnormal operation such as the Web Manage page not allowing login. This means the user cannot adjust the settings of the device and other functions under the Web Manager. However, this does not lead to remote code execution and a hacker cannot take control of the device, gain passwords or any other illegal entry to the network through this vulnerability.

Password/ Username Exposure through SNMP:
- For 3 D-Link Access Points (DAP-1353 H/W ver. B1, DAP-2553 H/W ver. A1, DAP-3520 H/W ver. A1), the administrative username/password is exposed through SNMP OID strings. CVE-2016-1559.
- Impact: The SNMP OID string text containing the password/username can only be accessed if the following 3 conditions are met: 1) SNMP protocol is enabled. 2) the device administrator is performing management tasks through SNMP. 3) The attacker sniffs out the correct packets to obtain the password/username. Please note that not all D-Link access points have the SNMP protocol enabled by default.

Installation Procedure:

- Save the downloadable package.
- Log into the router’s web user interface.
- Navigate to the firmware upgrade section of your wireless unit.
- Select the present firmware and configure your router to install this file.
- Wait as the device carries out this process.
- Reboot the unit if required.

About Access Point Firmware:

If you update the Access Point (AP) firmware, your device can benefit from changes that fix multiple issues encountered by wireless clients, correct different user interface problems, add various functionalities, and include support for newly developed protocols.

Before performing this task, we recommend that you read and understand all the installation steps, because there are many AP models and manufacturers available. Each producer strives to make the procedure as simple as possible, but there are cases when it’s anything but that.

It is also advisable that you apply a new access point firmware in a steady power environment (UPS unit will satisfy this need), using an Ethernet cable rather than a wireless connection. The latter can be easily interrupted.

With this in mind, if you wish to apply this version, click the download button and install the package on your access point. Remember to check back with our website as often as possible so that you don’t miss a single new release.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
