Router der Firma D-LINK enthalten eine Firewall und in der Regel eine WLAN-Schnittstelle. Die Geräte sind hauptsächlich für private Anwender und Kleinunternehmen konzipiert. Ein entfernter, authentisierter Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in D-LINK Router ausnutzen, um beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen oder einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand zu verursachen.

Under what conditions?

Over the network, but only with valid access (login required), for example with stolen credentials or as an insider.

What can happen in the worst case

An attacker could use the vulnerability to

  • beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen oder einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand zu verursachen
