DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in D-Link DI-8100 16.07.26A1. This affects an unknown part of the file /url_member.asp of the component Web Management Interface. Executing a manipulation of the argument Name can lead to buffer overflow. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used.

AnalysisAI

Buffer overflow in D-Link DI-8100 router firmware 16.07.26A1 allows authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary code via crafted 'Name' parameter to /url_member.asp in the web management interface. Public exploit code exists on GitHub, demonstrating active proof-of-concept availability. EPSS data unavailable; CVSS 7.2 reflects high impact but limited by requirement for high-privilege (admin) authentication, reducing real-world urgency for most organizations unless admin credentials are compromised or insider threat exists.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability affects the D-Link DI-8100 routing platform's web-based management interface, specifically in the /url_member.asp endpoint. The flaw is a classic buffer overflow (CWE-120) triggered by insufficient input validation on the 'Name' parameter. Buffer overflows occur when data written to a buffer exceeds its allocated memory boundary, allowing attackers to overwrite adjacent memory regions including return addresses and function pointers. In web management interfaces typically written in C/C++, lack of bounds checking on string operations (strcpy, sprintf, etc.) commonly causes this vulnerability class. The CPE identifier cpe:2.3:a:d-link:di-8100:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates the application-level firmware component is affected, with version 16.07.26A1 specifically identified.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch or updated firmware version has been identified in the available data at time of analysis. Until D-Link issues a security advisory with patched firmware, implement the following compensating controls with associated trade-offs: (1) Restrict access to the web management interface (/url_member.asp and entire admin panel) to trusted internal management networks only via firewall rules or router ACLs - blocks remote exploitation but requires VPN or jump host for legitimate remote administration. (2) Disable web-based management entirely if CLI/serial console access is viable for your operations - eliminates attack surface but increases administrative overhead. (3) Implement strong multi-factor authentication for all administrator accounts if supported by the platform - raises attacker cost but does not prevent exploitation after successful authentication. (4) Monitor admin session logs for unusual 'Name' parameter lengths or special characters in /url_member.asp requests - provides detection capability but no prevention. Check D-Link security advisories at https://www.dlink.com/ and the support portal for DI-8100 regularly for firmware updates. Consider replacing end-of-life hardware if D-Link discontinues security support for this model.
