Unauthenticated DDNS changes via formSetDDNS
Published Mar 20, 2025 · Updated Mar 20, 2025
Improper access control in D-Link DIR-618 and DIR-605L 2.02 and 3.02 allows remote attackers to alter DDNS settings from the local network. The published record identifies /goform/formSetDDNS but does not disclose the missing authorization check or crafted request parameters. No account or user interaction is required, but the attacker must reach the router from an adjacent network; the documented consequence is limited to configuration integrity.
