CVE-2025-10779
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability was found in D-Link DCS-935L up to 1.13.01. The impacted element is the function sub_402280 of the file /HNAP1/. The manipulation of the argument HNAP_AUTH/SOAPAction results in stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceStack-based buffer overflow in D-Link DCS-935L IP cameras (firmware up to 1.13.01) in the HNAP1 web interface function sub_402280. The vulnerability is triggered via manipulation of the HNAP_AUTH or SOAPAction HTTP header arguments, potentially allowing remote code execution.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm device model is DCS-935LAccess the camera web interface or check the device label/metadata. The vulnerability specifically affects the D-Link DCS-935L model.Affected if The device is a D-Link DCS-935L IP camera.
-
Identify firmware versionLog into the camera web interface and navigate to the firmware/version information page, or use the manufacturer diagnostic page (typically at /ver.ini or /cgi-bin/get_status? miscellaneous). Compare the displayed firmware version to the affected range.Affected if Firmware version is 1.13.01 or lower.
-
Verify HNAP1 web interface is accessibleAttempt to access the camera's web interface over HTTP/HTTPS on the local network. The vulnerability exists in the HNAP1 function sub_402280 within the web interface.Affected if The camera web interface (HNAP1 service) is reachable and responds to requests.
-
Check if device is exposed to untrusted networksReview network firewall rules and NAT configurations to determine if the camera web interface (ports 80/443) is accessible from untrusted networks or the internet.Affected if The HNAP1 web interface is exposed to untrusted or internet-facing networks.
A user is affected if they operate a D-Link DCS-935L camera running firmware version 1.13.01 or lower, with the HNAP1 web interface accessible on their network.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedThis is an end-of-life device receiving no vendor patches. Immediate mitigation requires replacing the affected camera with a supported model. Until replacement, network segmentation and restricting web interface access to trusted IPs only may reduce attack surface.
- 1. Immediately isolate the affected D-Link DCS-935L device from the network to prevent remote exploitation.
- 2. Disable or block access to the HNAP1 service endpoint on the device firewall.
- 3. Since D-Link has stated this product is no longer supported, replace the DCS-935L with a currently supported device from D-Link or an alternative vendor.
- 4. If continued use is absolutely necessary, implement strict network segmentation to limit exposure to local networks only.
- 5. Monitor for any D-Link security advisories or community-provided patches, though official support is discontinued.
