Exploitation Summary

EIP tracks 3 public exploits for CVE-2013-10061. PoCs published by Metasploit, m-1-k-3, including Metasploit module exploits/linux/http/netgear_dgn1000b_setup_exec.

AI-analyzed exploit summary This Metasploit module exploits an authenticated OS command injection vulnerability in Netgear DGN1000B routers via the setup.cgi component. It leverages the TimeToLive parameter to execute arbitrary commands, supporting both direct command execution and MIPS payload deployment.

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.
