What is CVE-2013-10059?

An authenticated OS command injection flaw exists in certain D-Link routers, notably the DIR-615H1. This vulnerability can be exploited through the tools_vct.htm endpoint due to improper input sanitation of the ping_ipaddr parameter. Attackers with access to the web interface can utilize this blind injection vulnerability to run arbitrary shell commands by leveraging backtick encapsulation. If default credentials are in use, the risk of exploitation increases significantly, making it crucial for users to secure their devices.

Affected Version(s)

DIR-615H1 * <= 8.04

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
