Support Announcement
(non-US) DIR-819 :: HW:A1 :: FW v1.06 :: Remote Code Execution (RCE)

Overview

 

On July 13, 2021, a 3rd party researcher at HITCON ZeroDay publically disclosed a 0-day security report on the non-US SKU DIR-819 with firmeare v1.06 which may allow a user to access to device's configuration and managment interface.

 

Once the device was fully booted , it gave access to connected clients over LAN to upload or dowload the cfg file over tftp. This access can elevate security issues by allowing a malicious users to change the devices configuration.

 

The new firmware patch doesn't allow downloading or uploading config files by disabling the functionality.
