DIR-878 router remotely exploitable command execution flaws (multiple vulnerabilities)
Vulnerability
Summary
Hide ▲
Show ▼
D-Link DIR-878 routers are affected by four vulnerabilities, including three remotely exploitable command execution flaws and one USB/physical-access stack overflow. The issues affect all models and hardware revisions, and public PoC exploit code is already available, raising the risk for still-deployed devices. Because the DIR-878 is end-of-life, there will be no security updates for the model.
