| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
D-Link DCS-825L firmware versions prior to 1.09.02
Description:
The D-Link DCS-825L firmware contains a flaw in the watchdog script
mydlink-watch-dog.sh. This script blindly respawns binaries, including dcp and signalc, without verifying their integrity, authenticity, or permissions. An attacker with local filesystem access can replace these binaries with malicious payloads. The script then executes these binaries as root in a continuous loop, resulting in persistent privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution.Recommendations:
Update to firmware version 1.09.02 or later.
