Description
An authenticated OS command injection vulnerability exists in Netgear routers (tested on the DGN1000B model firmware versions 1.1.00.24 and 1.1.00.45) via the TimeToLive parameter in the setup.cgi endpoint. The vulnerability arises from improper input neutralization, enabling command injection through crafted POST requests. This flaw enables remote attackers to deploy payloads or manipulate system state post-authentication.
Public exploit
An exploit or proof of concept is public: anyone can try it against an unpatched system. The public collections list a Metasploit module for it. 4 references of the record are tagged as an exploit. CISA's SSVC rates its exploitation: a proof of concept is public.
