Summary

D-Link DIR-846 devices running firmware version 100A35 are susceptible to a remote command execution vulnerability. By exploiting an improperly secured endpoint, a remote attacker can send carefully crafted requests to the device's SetWizardConfig interface, using shell metacharacters to execute arbitrary OS commands with root privileges. This can compromise the integrity and confidentiality of the device, potentially allowing unauthorized control and manipulation of the network. It's crucial for users of affected devices to apply the necessary firmware updates and implement security best practices to mitigate this risk.
