A vulnerability was found in D-Link DNS-120, DNR-202L, DNS-315L, DNS-320, DNS-320L, DNS-320LW, DNS-321, DNR-322L, DNS-323, DNS-325, DNS-326, DNS-327L, DNR-326, DNS-340L, DNS-343, DNS-345, DNS-726-4, DNS-1100-4, DNS-1200-05 and DNS-1550-04 up to 20240814. It has been classified as critical. This affects the function webdav_mgr of the file /cgi-bin/webdav_mgr.cgi of the component HTTP POST Request Handler. The manipulation of the argument f_path leads to command injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer. NOTE: Vendor was contacted early and confirmed that the product is end-of-life. It should be retired and replaced.

  • Detect HTTP POST requests to /cgi-bin/webdav_mgr.cgi with the f_path parameter containing shell metacharacters (;, newline, backtick, pipe, $) — URL-encoded or literal — indicative of command injection exploitation.
  • The URI match is exact-length (bsize:23), meaning the full URI is exactly /cgi-bin/webdav_mgr.cgi — use this for high-fidelity matching to reduce false positives.
  • The vulnerability is in the webdav_mgr function of the file /cgi-bin/webdav_mgr.cgi; the attack vector is a remotely initiated HTTP POST request manipulating the f_path argument.
  • Traffic is expected in plaintext (non-TLS); perimeter and internal deployment of the Snort/Suricata rule is recommended per the rule metadata.
  • MITRE mapping: TA0001 Initial Access / T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application — prioritize alerting on inbound exploitation attempts from external sources.
  • ·All affected D-Link devices (DNS-120, DNR-202L, DNS-315L, DNS-320/320L/320LW/321/323/325/326/327L, DNR-322L/326, DNS-340L/343/345/726-4/1100-4/1200-05/1550-04) are end-of-life and will receive no patches; the only remediation is device retirement/replacement.
  • ·The exploit has been publicly disclosed, raising the likelihood of active in-the-wild exploitation against any internet-exposed affected devices.
