DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was detected in D-Link DIR-878 120B05. This affects the function SetDynamicDNSIPv6Settings of the component Dynamic DNS IPv6 Settings. The manipulation of the argument IPv6Address/Hostname results in stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be launched remotely.

AnalysisAI

Stack-based buffer overflow in the D-Link DIR-878 router (firmware 120B05) lets an authenticated attacker corrupt the stack by supplying an oversized IPv6Address/Hostname argument to the SetDynamicDNSIPv6Settings handler of the Dynamic DNS IPv6 Settings component. Because the flaw is reachable remotely over the web management interface and the CVSS 4.0 vector indicates full compromise of confidentiality, integrity and availability, successful exploitation can plausibly yield arbitrary code execution on the device. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires network access to the DIR-878's HTTP management interface and an authenticated session (CVSS PR:L) - the SetDynamicDNSIPv6Settings function is an administrative Dynamic DNS IPv6 configuration handler, so the attacker must be able to submit configuration requests. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor-style CVSS 4.0 score of 9.4 reflects a network-reachable flaw (AV:N/AC:L) requiring only low privileges (PR:L) and no user interaction, with high impact to the vulnerable system and, as scored, to subsequent systems. … 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 version is identified in the available data; consult D-Link's support/security pages (https://www.dlink.com/) for a firmware update superseding 120B05, and monitor the VulDB record (https://vuldb.com/cve/CVE-2026-90692) and the GitHub advisory for fix status, noting the DIR-878 may be near or past end-of-support. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all D-Link DIR-878 devices running firmware 120B05 in your network, change administrative credentials to strong unique passwords, and immediately disable remote web management access (WAN-facing HTTP/HTTPS and UPnP). …
