Unauthenticated command execution via admin-password request
Published May 8, 2025 · Updated May 12, 2025
Command injection in D-Link DNS-320 1.00 and DNS-320LW 1.01.0914.20212 allows remote attackers to execute commands through an HTTP request. The account_mgr.cgi cgi_chg_admin_pw handler incorporates request-controlled data into an operating-system command without neutralizing command syntax. No authentication or user interaction is required; successful injection executes commands in the NAS appliance's firmware context.
