DescriptionNVD

D-Link DIR-600L Hardware Revision A1 (End-of-Life) contains a hardcoded telnet backdoor. The device starts a telnet daemon at boot via /bin/telnetd.sh with the username "Alphanetworks" and the static password "wrgn35_dlwbr_dir600l" read from /etc/alpha_config/image_sign. The custom telnetd binary accepts a -u user:password flag, and the custom login binary uses strcmp() to validate credentials. Successful authentication grants an unauthenticated attacker on the local network a root shell with full administrative control. The device has reached End-of-Life (EOL) and will not receive patches.

AnalysisAI

Remote root shell access via hardcoded telnet backdoor in D-Link DIR-600L Hardware Revision A1 allows network-adjacent attackers to authenticate with publicly known credentials ('Alphanetworks' / 'wrgn35_dlwbr_dir600l') and obtain full administrative control. The backdoor telnet daemon launches automatically at boot with static credentials stored in /etc/alpha_config/image_sign. …
