CVE-2026-71947: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') in D-Link Corporation DWR-M961
D-Link DWR-M961 devices with hardware version C1 and firmware version before 1.1.5_C1_202607071108 contain a command injection vulnerability in the /boafrm/formTracerouteDiagnosticRun interface. A remote attacker can inject arbitrary malicious commands into the host and ipVer fields, resulting in command execution with root privileges.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The D-Link DWR-M961 router, hardware version C1, contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the /boafrm/formTracerouteDiagnosticRun interface. Remote attackers can exploit insufficient neutralization of special elements in the host and ipVer input fields to execute arbitrary OS commands with root-level privileges. This vulnerability affects firmware versions before 1.1.5_C1_202607071108. No official remediation or patch information is provided in the available data.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation results in remote command execution with root privileges on affected devices, allowing full control over the system. This can lead to compromise of device integrity, confidentiality, and availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the vulnerable interface and monitor for suspicious activity.
