A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in D-Link DCS-6517 and DCS-7517 up to 2.02.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function generate_pass_from_mac of the file /bin/httpd of the component Root Password Generation Handler. The manipulation leads to insufficient entropy. The attack can be launched remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitation appears to be difficult. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
AnalysisAI
Insufficient entropy in root password generation allows remote attackers to predict administrator credentials on D-Link DCS-6517 and DCS-7517 cameras running firmware up to 2.02.0. The vulnerability arises from the generate_pass_from_mac function, enabling password disclosure via a high-complexity attack. Public exploit code is available, but the products are end-of-life and no longer supported.
