# CVE-2014-100005: D-Link DIR-600 Router Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Vulnerability

**Signal:** Exploited: patch now if you run it. CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- Yes, if you run D-Link DIR-600 Router. CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2024-05-16, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild. US federal agencies must remediate by 2024-06-06 ; treat that as the outer limit, not the target.
- EPSS 43.5% , percentile 99: FIRST’s model estimates a 43.5% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 99% of all scored CVEs (very high). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Needs an account (low (any account)). Exposure depends on who can log in.

## What it is

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in D-Link DIR-600 router (rev. Bx) with firmware before 2.17b02 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that (1) create an administrator account or (2) enable remote management via a crafted configuration module to hedwig.cgi, (3) activate new configuration settings via a SETCFG,SAVE,ACTIVATE action to pigwidgeon.cgi, or (4) send a ping via a ping action to diagnostic.php.
