CVE-2025-4903

5.3 MEDIUM

📋 TL;DR

This critical vulnerability in D-Link DI-7003GV2 routers allows remote attackers to change passwords without verification via a specific web interface function. Attackers can exploit this to gain administrative access to affected routers. Only D-Link DI-7003GV2 routers running firmware version 24.04.18D1 R(68125) are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • D-Link DI-7003GV2
Versions: 24.04.18D1 R(68125)
Operating Systems: Embedded router firmware
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Vulnerability exists in web interface component accessible via specific URL parameters. Remote management must be enabled for external exploitation.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete router compromise allowing attacker to change admin credentials, intercept network traffic, deploy malware, and use router as pivot point into internal network.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized administrative access leading to router configuration changes, network monitoring, and potential credential theft.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if router is behind firewall with restricted WAN access and strong network segmentation.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - Attack can be initiated remotely without authentication, making internet-exposed routers immediately vulnerable.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal attackers could exploit if they have network access, but requires knowledge of specific vulnerable endpoint.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Exploit details publicly disclosed on GitHub. Attack requires sending crafted HTTP request to specific endpoint with password parameter manipulation.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://www.dlink.com/

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Check D-Link website for security advisories
2. If patch available, download firmware update
3. Upload via router admin interface
4. Verify update applied successfully

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Disable Remote Management

all

Prevent external access to vulnerable web interface

Access router admin panel > Security > Remote Management > Disable

Restrict Web Interface Access

all

Limit access to router admin interface to trusted IPs only

Access router admin panel > Security > Access Control > Add trusted IP ranges

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate affected routers in separate VLAN with strict firewall rules
  • Implement network monitoring for suspicious HTTP requests to /H5/webgl.asp endpoint

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check router firmware version in admin interface. If version is 24.04.18D1 R(68125), system is vulnerable.

Check Version:

Login to router admin interface and check System Status or Firmware Version page

Verify Fix Applied:

After applying any workaround, attempt to access /H5/webgl.asp?tggl_port=0&remote_management=0&http_passwd=game&exec_service=admin-restart from untrusted network. Should be inaccessible.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • HTTP requests to /H5/webgl.asp with password parameters
  • Multiple failed login attempts followed by successful admin access
  • Router configuration changes from unexpected IP addresses

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP POST requests to router IP on port 80/443 containing 'webgl.asp' and 'http_passwd' parameter
  • Unusual outbound traffic from router to external IPs

SIEM Query:

source="router_logs" AND (url="*webgl.asp*" OR message="*password change*" OR user="admin" AND src_ip NOT IN [trusted_ips])
