Arbitrary file creation via unvalidated telematics paths
Published Jan 31, 2025 · Updated Jul 1, 2025
Path traversal in Pioneer DMH-WT7600NEX devices allows remote attackers to create arbitrary files through adjacent-network telematics requests. The telematics file operation uses a user-supplied path without validating that it remains within the intended directory. An authenticated session is nominally required but bypassable; arbitrary code execution as root requires chaining this flaw with other vulnerabilities.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
