D-Link Routers RCE (CVE-2019-16057)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 172032

Language:

Synopsis

The remote router is affected by a remote command execution vulnerability.

Description

D-Link DNS-320 through 2.05.B10 is affected by command injection in the login_mgr.cgi component, which can lead to remote arbitrary code execution. The port parameter in the script could be poisoned to execute arbitrary commands, opening the door to an RCE attack. If the vulnerability is exploited a remote, unauthenticated attacker can access all application commands with root permission.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the router's self-reported model.

Solution

Upgrade to a supported device.
