Certain D-Link router models have a hidden backdoor that was recently discovered. This flaw allows attackers on the same network to gain unauthorized control over the router by accessing a specific URL, enabling the Telnet service, and using administrator credentials obtained from firmware analysis. This poses significant security risks.
The affected D-Link router models are: E15, E30, G403, G415, G416, M15, M18, M30, M32, M60, R03, R04, R12, R15, R18, and R32.
D-Link released firmware updates to fix the CVE-2024-6045 (CVSS 8.8) vulnerability. Users should update their router’s firmware to the specified versions or later.
G403, G415, G416, M18, R03, R04, R12, R18: Update to firmware version 1.10.01 or later.
E30, M30, M32, M60, R32: Update to firmware version 1.10.02 or later.
E15, R15: Update to firmware version 1.20.01 or later.
Ensure the successful update by comparing the router’s displayed firmware version with the downloaded update.
D-Link is working on releasing official firmware updates, but for now, there may be beta versions available. However, users should be careful when using beta software, as it is still being tested and might not be completely stable. D-Link is not responsible for any problems that might occur from using beta firmware.
You can visit D-Link’s website for more info and to download the latest firmware updates.
