CVE-2020-25506
Overview
This vulnerability is a command injection flaw caused by improper input validation in the system_mgr.cgi component of D-Link DNS-320 firmware version 2.06B01 Revision Ax. The root cause lies in the unsanitized handling of user-supplied parameters within the CGI script, allowing shell commands to be injected and executed on the device's operating system level. The affected component processes HTTP POST requests, specifically targeting the system management interface.
Vulnerability Description
D-Link DNS-320 FW v2.06B01 Revision Ax is affected by command injection in the system_mgr.cgi component, which can lead to remote arbitrary code execution.
Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary system commands remotely on the affected device, gaining full control over it. This enables compromise of device integrity, potential access to sensitive network data, and the ability to deploy malware or pivot within the internal network. No user interaction or credentials are required to exploit this vulnerability, allowing immediate and complete system compromise upon successful exploitation.
Solution
D-Link has issued a security bulletin addressing this vulnerability and recommends upgrading the DNS-320 firmware to a patched version beyond 2.06B01. Refer to the official advisory SAP10183 available at https://supportannouncement.us.dlink.com/announcement/publication.aspx?name=SAP10183 for detailed patch instructions and firmware downloads. Users should apply the vendor-provided firmware update promptly to mitigate this issue.
