Crafted LAN input can crash the Archer AX55 v4 EasyMesh daemon; execution remains unproven.

Affects

TP-Link Archer AX55 v4, a consumer Wi-Fi router running embedded firmware with optional EasyMesh mode.

The demonstrated path requires LAN reachability and Mesh mode, then triggers a stack overflow that terminates the daemon.

Detail and 3 sources

The public material does not establish execution control, daemon privilege, or mitigation behavior.

Chain to watch
Reach an Archer AX55 v4 over its LAN with Mesh enabled→↓Send crafted EasyMesh input→↓Trigger a stack overflow and daemon crash→↓Control of execution and the process privilege remain unknown.
Unverified chainObtain the research report or diff the firmware, then measure overwrite control, privilege, ASLR, canaries, and NX.
