Administrative session hijacking via source-IP spoofing
Published Feb 26, 2026 · Updated Feb 26, 2026
Improper session management in D-Link DSL-124 ME_1.00 allows attackers on the local network to hijack administrative sessions. Its web management interface issues no session cookie or token and uses the request's source IP address as the sole authenticated-session identifier. An attacker on the same local network must spoof a currently authenticated user's IP address, after which the interface grants arbitrary administrative access without credentials.
