D-Link DCS-2530L < 1.07 and DCS-2670L < 2.03 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 316488

Synopsis

The IP Camera is affected by a command injection vulnerability.

Description

According to its self-reported version, D-Link IP Camera DCS-2530L on or before 1.05.05, and DCS-2670L on or before 2.02 are affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

- A command injection vulnerability exists in affected devices due to the improper neutralization of special elements in cgi-bin/ddns_enc.cgi. An authenticated, remote attacker, can exploit this by manipulating structural command seperators to execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2020-25079)

- An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in affected devices due to the /config/getuser endpoint allowing for remote administrator password disclosure. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via sending a direct HTTP request, to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary actions with administrative privileges. (CVE-2020-25078)

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

Solution

Apply the vendor supplied hotfix per affected model, or upgrade to a supported device.
