A command injection vulnerability in the protest binary allows an attacker with access to the remote command line interface to execute arbitrary commands as root.

D-Link DIR-2640-US 1.01B04 is affected by Insufficiently Protected Credentials. D-Link AC2600(DIR-2640) stores the device system account password in plain text. It does not use linux user management. In addition, the passwords of all devices are the same, and they cannot be modified by normal users. An attacker can easily log in to the target router through the serial port and obtain root privileges.

D-Link DIR-2640-US 1.01B04 is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control. Router ac2600 (dir-2640-us), when setting PPPoE, will start quagga process in the way of whole network monitoring, and this function uses the original default password and port. An attacker can easily use telnet to log in, modify routing information, monitor the traffic of all devices under the router, hijack DNS and phishing attacks. In addition, this interface is likely to be questioned by customers as a backdoor, because the interface should not be exposed.

D-Link DIR-2640-US 1.01B04 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow. There are multiple out-of-bounds vulnerabilities in some processes of D-Link AC2600(DIR-2640). Local ordinary users can overwrite the global variables in the .bss section, causing the process crashes or changes.

There are multiple out-of-bounds vulnerabilities in some processes of D-Link AC2600(DIR-2640) 1.01B04. Ordinary permissions can be elevated to administrator permissions, resulting in local arbitrary code execution. An attacker can combine other vulnerabilities to further achieve the purpose of remote code execution.
