Summary
Silicon Labs EmberZNet versions through 9.1.1 contain an out-of-bounds write triggered by a malformed Publish Price Matrix command in the Zigbee stack. The flaw is classified as a stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121). The attacker must already be joined to the network, and only devices supporting the Price Cluster are impacted. Successful exploitation can potentially lead to remote code execution.
