CVE-2023-5147Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unrestricted firmware upload

Published Sep 25, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Unrestricted file upload in D-Link DAR-7000 20151231 allows remote authenticated users to execute PHP through the management interface. The /sysmanage/updateos.php handler accepts a PHP file in the multipart 1_file_upload field and makes it web-accessible without restricting its type. A valid PHP session is required; successful upload permits server-side PHP execution under the appliance web service account.
