Authenticated command injection via router input
Published Apr 28, 2020 · Updated Aug 6, 2024
OS command injection in NETGEAR DGN2200v4 before 2017-01-06 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands via router requests. The router's command-processing interface accepts attacker-controlled input without adequate neutralization, and its FTP service exposes the filesystem root. Access requires the router administrator password; successful exploitation can backdoor the router, modify Internet traffic, execute arbitrary operating-system commands, and read root-directory files.
