Title: D-Link's solution to critical NAS vulnerability: buy new hardware
Post by: Redaktion on November 10, 2024, 16:24:00
A critical command injection vulnerability has been discovered in several D-Link NAS devices, posing a high-security risk due to lack of authentication safeguards. D-Link has declined to issue security patches for the affected models, which reached end-of-life status in 2020, instead recommending users replace their devices entirely. Experts recommend isolating these devices from public networks and implementing strict access controls.

I'm sorry but why on earth would users have their NAS exposed to the internet in the first place? ('private cloud' while out in the wild?)

IMHO: as a whole the industry continues to introduce vulnerable products to be used in vulnerable ways. :(

D-Link routers suck.  I retired mine and got a Xiaomi and am never looking back.  Super stable and fast connections.  Often times I could go on for weeks without needing to restart the router.  The D-Link is like dog poo, I often times have to restart the router more than once during a single day!
