Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was detected in D-Link DI-8100 16.07.26A1. Affected by this issue is the function tggl_asp of the file /tggl.asp of the component HTTP Request Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument Name results in buffer overflow. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used.
AnalysisAI
Buffer overflow in D-Link DI-8100 router (firmware 16.07.26A1) allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or crash the device via crafted HTTP requests to the /tggl.asp endpoint. The vulnerability affects the tggl_asp function's Name parameter handling. Public exploit code is available on GitHub, significantly lowering the barrier to exploitation for attackers with valid router credentials.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in the D-Link DI-8100's HTTP request handler, specifically in the tggl_asp function within /tggl.asp. This is a classic stack-based or heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-120) where improper bounds checking on the Name parameter allows attackers to write data beyond allocated memory boundaries. The DI-8100 is a multi-WAN load balancing router commonly deployed in small-to-medium business environments. The affected firmware version 16.07.26A1 uses vulnerable input validation routines in its embedded web server. When processing HTTP requests to tggl.asp, the function copies user-supplied Name parameter data without adequate length validation, enabling memory corruption. The CPE identifier cpe:2.3:a:d-link:di-8100:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms this is an application-layer vulnerability in D-Link's proprietary firmware codebase.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released security patch is identified in the available references at time of analysis. Organizations operating D-Link DI-8100 devices should immediately contact D-Link technical support to request firmware update availability and security guidance. Until an official patch is released, implement defense-in-depth controls: restrict administrative interface access to trusted management networks only using firewall rules or access control lists (eliminates remote attack vector but impacts remote administration capabilities); enforce strong, unique administrative passwords and disable default credentials (raises authentication barrier); deploy network segmentation to isolate the router's management plane from general user networks (limits credential exposure); enable administrative access logging and monitor for suspicious /tggl.asp requests with abnormal Name parameter lengths (provides detection capability but won't prevent exploitation). Consider replacing the DI-8100 with alternative load balancing solutions if D-Link cannot provide timely security updates, as the device may have reached end-of-life status given the older firmware version numbering.
