CVE-2024-7831

30
FAUCET Score

CVE-2024-7831 is a critical buffer overflow vulnerability in the cgi_get_cooliris function of the /cgi-bin/photocenter_mgr.cgi file, affecting numerous D-Link DNS and DNR series devices up to August 14, 2024. This flaw allows for remote exploitation by manipulating the 'path' argument, potentially leading to full compromise of the device. With a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical), it poses a significant risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While the vulnerability has been publicly disclosed and exploit code is available, it is important to note that all affected products are end-of-life and no longer supported by D-Link, with the vendor recommending retirement and replacement. Despite the lack of active exploitation in the wild (not in KEV), there is significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
