Description
Netcore NR255-V firmware version 1.5.130703 builds root-run command lines from unquoted user-supplied DDNS input in DDNSset_cgi.c and related ddns_Proc.c components, enabling os command argument injection. Attackers can exploit the unsanitized parameters to inject additional command arguments executed with root privileges.

AI Analysis

Impact

Netcore NR255‑V firmware 1.5.130703 builds root‑run command lines from unquoted user‑supplied DDNS input in DDNSset_cgi.c and related ddns_Proc.c components, enabling attackers to inject arbitrary OS command arguments. This flaw is a classic OS command injection weakness, allowing malicious command payloads to execute with root privileges and potentially compromise the entire device.

Affected Systems

Affected systems are Netcore NR255‑V routers running firmware version 1.5.130703. The vulnerability does not appear to affect other firmware versions.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 8.6 and an EPSS score below 1 %, the likelihood of exploitation in the wild is low, yet the potential impact is high. Successful exploitation would give root‑level access, permitting an attacker to run arbitrary commands on the device. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, and no public exploitation reports are known. It is inferred that attackers would need remote access to the DDNS configuration interface, typically through the router’s HTTP interface, and the device must be reachable on the local network segment; the attack vector is therefore most likely remote from a nearby device or trusted network.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to a firmware version that removes unsanitized DDNS parsing and properly sanitizes all command arguments.
  • If an update is not available, disable or restrict access to the DDNS configuration interface so that only authorized local users can change DDNS settings block HTTP/HTTPS traffic to the DDNS endpoint from untrusted network segments using the router’s firewall or an external firewall.
  • Audit network interfaces for exposed DDNS ports and close any that are unnecessary.
