Published: 14 January 2025
Description
Multiple command execution vulnerabilities exist in the nas.cgi add_dir() functionality of Wavlink AC3000 M33A8.V5030.210505. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to arbitrary command execution. An attacker can make an authenticated HTTP request to trigger these vulnerabilities.A command injection vulnerability exists in the adddir_name POST parameter.
Security Summary
CVE-2024-39785 consists of multiple command execution vulnerabilities in the nas.cgi add_dir() functionality of the Wavlink AC3000 router running firmware version M33A8.V5030.210505. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to arbitrary command execution, with a specific command injection issue in the adddir_name POST parameter. These flaws fall under CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command) and were published on 2025-01-14 with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
An attacker with high privileges can exploit these vulnerabilities by sending an authenticated HTTP request to the affected nas.cgi endpoint. Successful exploitation grants arbitrary command execution on the device, potentially allowing full compromise including data exfiltration, persistence, or further network pivoting given the high-impact CVSS metrics across confidentiality, integrity, and availability in a scoped attack.
