CVE-2024-28730Public exploit

Sensitive-data exposure via unsanitized OpenVPN filename

Published Nov 12, 2024 · Updated Nov 21, 2024

Stored cross-site scripting in D-Link DWR-2000M firmware 1.34ME allows local users to execute JavaScript through an OpenVPN file upload. The VPN configuration interface accepts an .ovpn filename without adequate validation or output neutralization and renders the name as active markup. An authenticated management-session user must upload the file and trigger its display; the resulting script can read or alter data available to that browser session.
