Di-7400g+ Firmware: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command
CVE-2025-57105 is a critical-severity improper neutralization of special elements used in a command vulnerability in Di-7400g+ Firmware from D-Link, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected Di-7400g+ Firmware versions: 19.12.25a1. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 2.85% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 87% of scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of Di-7400g+ Firmware you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Read the advisory on dlink.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
The DI-7400G+ router has a command injection vulnerability, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the device. The sub_478D28 function in in mng_platform.asp, and sub_4A12DC function in wayos_ac_server.asp of the jhttpd program, with the parameter ac_mng_srv_host.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command
The product constructs all or part of a command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended command when it is sent to a downstream component.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- If at all possible, use library calls rather than external processes to recreate the desired functionality.
- If possible, ensure that all external commands called from the program are statically created.
- Run time: Run time policy enforcement may be used in an allowlist fashion to prevent use of any non-sanctioned commands.
