Summary
Hide ▲
Show ▼
D-Link has disclosed four vulnerabilities in its end-of-life DIR-878 router, including three remotely exploitable command execution flaws. The vulnerabilities affect all models and hardware revisions of the router, which is still available for purchase. D-Link has warned that it will not release security updates for this model and recommends replacing it with an actively supported product. The vulnerabilities include CVE-2025-60672 and CVE-2025-60673, which allow remote unauthenticated command execution via unsanitized parameters, and CVE-2025-60674, a stack overflow in USB storage handling. Proof-of-concept exploit code has been published by a researcher, increasing the risk of exploitation by threat actors.
