D-Link Tells Users To Trash Old VPN Routers Over Bug Too Dangerous To Identify (theregister.com) 126

Posted by msmash from the tough-luck dept.
Owners of older models of D-Link VPN routers are being told to retire and replace their devices following the disclosure of a serious remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability. From a report: Most of the details about the bug are being kept under wraps given the potential for wide exploitation. The vendor hasn't assigned it a CVE identifier or really said much about it at all other than that it's a buffer overflow bug that leads to unauthenticated RCE.

Unauthenticated RCE issues are essentially as bad as vulnerabilities get, and D-Link warned that if customers continued to use the affected products, the devices connected to them would also be put at risk. Previous bugs in similar products from other vendors have carried warnings that attackers could exploit them to install rootkits and use that persistent access to surveil an organization's web traffic, potentially stealing data such as credentials.

          Nope. "Security through obscurity" is when your initial system design fails to use good security practices, and you rely on "but nobody knows the protocol" or "nobody knows the port" or "nobody knows the password" as your design-level security implementation.

          In this case, an unintentional security bug was discovered after release. It is still responsible to issue a patch, but it is also responsible to keep the details a secret to protect users until they can get the patch.

          D-Link is refusing to issue a patch. I don't know all the details why so I can't judge. If the hardware was a recent purchase I would be pretty frustrated by that. But even still, keeping the details a secret just gives me more time to get the hardware replaced, so it is still the ethical response.

      • All that telling owners of affected routers to buy a new one is pretty close to perfectly guaranteed that they will buy some OTHER brand other than these shitheads products.

      Who in their right mind would buy or use any product bearing the D-Link brand

      A lot of people are not "in their right mind", and D-Link sales will probably not even be impacted. A working market needs competent buyers. We have too few of them.

    I'll stump for Synology here. I got an RT5600ac about six years ago. It still runs great, and they still sell and support it with regular security and bug fixes. The great thing about these is they are so old now you can get them used for cheap. I bought a used one from Salvation Army, sans power adapter and one antenna, for $10, that I'm going to use as a mesh extender with the first one. I've seen them on eBay for $40. If you don't absolutely need ax, it's a great option.

    • The most current item in the list was released in 2014, and was in support for as long as your Synology device. If you want to make a compelling argument to switch vendors then you'll need to find one which is appreciably different from D-Link. Synology is not, they also don't patch devices past EOL date.

      • If you aren't familiar with them, Synology is known for supporting their stuff. The DS111 NAS was released in 2010 and had it's latest firmware update last year. That's 13 years of support.

        • NAS != VPN router. I'm happy to be proven wrong, show us a VPN router that was removed from sale prior to 2017 from Synology in current support and I will happily grab my megaphone and rave about them with you.

          Compare like products.

          • Well, the RT2600ac (I got the model number wrong) was their very first router released in 2017, and they still sell and support it to this day. The D-Link DSR-250N was released in 2020 and EOL'd four years later.

            Do you know of any other home router that has had seven years of support? Again, Synology is known for their support.

    • I prefer Mikrotik. Their devices are great, very customizable and have lots of features (some features run slow on some devices though) They also issue updates even for very old devices. I have a device made in 2007 (looking at the date codes on the chips) and the latest version of RouterOS still supports it. I had to recap it though, but, well, electrolytic capacitors do not last forever.

  • I recently found out that there are massive routers for cgNAT [ispreview.co.uk] because of multi trillion companies [github.com] refusing to use IPv6, so everyone's new shiny gigabit fiber connections all have to squeeze through a cgNAT tunnel for said websites. Then there are all the old routers, many of them 30 years old in many core networks of ISPs, facing large amounts of DDOS attacks because they refuse to patch their software because they'd rather spend the money on new AI GPUs instead fixing critical hardware. Just wait, there wi

    Limited Lifetime Warranty
    D-Link offers a Limited Lifetime Warranty on the DSR-150 VPN Router to further its commitment to product quality and long-term customer confidence.

  • so you could have bought a new one then and have to to 6 years warranty in the EU.

  • Its highly unlikely D-Link owns any of the ip in side of it. They bought the chips, licensed what ever Stack came with them and probably just slapped on their UI all over it.
    I doubt there is any thing they can really do.
     

  • When it comes to supporting products, D-Link are D-Bags.

  • It's very simple cars for many decades in most countries have had laws around them that govern health and safety. Routers do not. Organisations that employ routers may have health and safety laws but routers do not.

    - Thus a 20 year old car will receive a recall if a defect is found that can harm others.
    - A router manufacture will not be required to fix a flaw endangers the users of traffic that traverse it.
    - An organisation such as a hospital will be required to resolve a networking issue that has the pot

  • I trashed your router awhile ago, I'll stick with my MikroTik thanks.

  • If you keep buying stuff from D-Link, you deserve it
