CVE-2024-41622Network attack vector

Authenticated command execution via unfiltered tomography address

Published Aug 27, 2024 · Updated Aug 27, 2024

OS command injection in D-Link DIR-846W A1 FW100A43 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands through the HNAP1 interface. The HNAP1 network-tomography handler incorporates the tomography_ping_address value into an operating-system command without neutralizing shell metacharacters. Administrative access to the web interface is required, and successful injection runs arbitrary commands with the router service's privileges.
