Security Summary
CVE-2024-39787 involves multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in the nas.cgi add_dir() functionality of the Wavlink AC3000 router running firmware version M33A8.V5030.210505. These issues, tied to CWE-22, enable a specially crafted HTTP request to bypass permissions. A specific directory traversal vulnerability also exists within the `disk_part` POST parameter. The vulnerability carries 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) and was published on 2025-01-14.
Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker with high privileges (PR:H) to send a malicious HTTP request, triggering the directory traversal and permission bypass. Successful attacks can achieve high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability with a changed scope (S:C), potentially granting unauthorized access to arbitrary files and directories on the device.
