DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was identified in D-Link DIR-842 2.01.B04. This impacts an unknown function of the file /etc/vsftpd.conf of the component vsftpd. Such manipulation leads to incorrect default permissions. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. A high complexity level is associated with this attack. The exploitability is said to be difficult.

AnalysisAI

Incorrect default permissions in the vsftpd FTP service on D-Link DIR-842 firmware 2.01.B04 allow a remotely authenticated low-privileged attacker to achieve limited integrity impact under high-complexity conditions via manipulation of /etc/vsftpd.conf. The vulnerability carries a CVSS 4.0 score of 2.3, placing it in the low-severity tier with no active exploitation confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code identified at time of analysis. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires all of the following: (1) the vsftpd FTP service must be enabled and network-accessible on the D-Link DIR-842 - this is not confirmed as the default state and must be verified per deployment; (2) the attacker must possess valid low-privilege credentials to authenticate to the FTP service, as confirmed by PR:L in the CVSS vector; (3) high attack complexity (AC:H) imposes an additional environmental or timing condition that must be satisfied - the exact nature of this condition is not specified in the available description or references, which limits defenders' ability to identify specific configuration triggers. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) yields a score of 2.3, reflecting meaningful attack barriers: high complexity (AC:H) and required low-privilege authentication (PR:L) substantially reduce opportunistic exploitation likelihood. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis for D-Link DIR-842 firmware 2.01.B04; users should monitor https://www.dlink.com/ for any firmware updates. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
