Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was detected in D-Link DI-8400 up to 16.07.26A1. This affects an unknown function of the file /dbsrv.asp. Performing a manipulation of the argument str results in stack-based buffer overflow. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit is now public and may be used. The initial researcher advisory mentions contradicting parameter names to be affected.
AnalysisAI
Stack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DI-8400 routers through firmware 16.07.26A1 allows authenticated remote attackers to corrupt memory by manipulating the 'str' parameter in /dbsrv.asp, potentially achieving code execution on the device. Publicly available exploit code exists, raising the practical risk despite the requirement for low-level privileges per the CVSS 4.0 vector. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Attacker must have network reachability to the router's web management interface (HTTP/HTTPS, typically port 80/443) and a valid low-privilege web UI account (CVSS PR:L), with no user interaction required. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) indicates network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation requiring only low privileges and no user interaction, with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device itself (scope-changed metrics are N), yielding a base score of 7.4. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with low-privileged credentials to the router's web UI (obtained via default credentials, prior phishing, or credential reuse) sends a crafted HTTP request to /dbsrv.asp with an oversized value in the 'str' parameter (or a related parameter, given the researcher's noted ambiguity), overflowing a stack buffer and overwriting the saved return address to redirect execution. Because publicly available exploit code exists on GitHub, the barrier to weaponization is low, and successful exploitation can yield arbitrary code execution on the router, enabling traffic interception, pivoting into the internal network, or enrollment in a botnet. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; the D-Link advisory page (https://www.dlink.com/) should be monitored for a firmware release superseding 16.07.26A1. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Inventory all D-Link DI-8400 routers running firmware 16.07.26A1 or earlier in your environment; immediately restrict administrative access to these devices via firewall rules and disable remote management if not operationally required. …
