What is CVE-2020-27862?
This vulnerability permits attackers on the same network to execute arbitrary code on the D-Link DVA-2800 and DSL-2888A routers without requiring authentication. The flaw resides within the dhttpd service, which listens on TCP port 8008 by default. The service fails to validate user-supplied strings adequately when parsing the path parameter, enabling an attacker to manipulate the execution of a system call and potentially gain access to sensitive functionalities of the web server.
