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 · unedited
A security vulnerability has been detected in UGREEN DH2100+ up to 5.3.0.251125. This impacts the function handler_file_backup_create of the file /v1/file/backup/create of the component nas_svr. The manipulation of the argument path leads to command injection. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. Upgrading the affected component is advised.

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 confidence

Command injection vulnerability in UGREEN DH2100+ NAS devices allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via manipulation of the 'path' argument in the /v1/file/backup/create endpoint (function handler_file_backup_create) in the nas_svr component.

MitigationUpgrade the UGREEN DH2100+ firmware to a version beyond 5.3.0.251125 to address the command injection vulnerability in the backup creation functionality.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify the NAS device model
    Check the device model label on the physical device or access the NAS web interface to view system information. Look for 'DH2100+' in the model name.
    Affected if The device is not a UGREEN DH2100+ NAS, the vulnerability does not apply.
  2. Check the installed firmware version
    Access the NAS web interface, navigate to System Settings > System Update or About, and record the firmware version number displayed.
    Affected if The firmware version is 5.3.0.251125 or earlier; versions prior to the fix are considered affected.
  3. Verify the nas_svr component is running
    Access the NAS via SSH or telnet if enabled, then run 'ps | grep nas_svr' or check the process list for the nas_svr daemon.
    Affected if The nas_svr component is not present or not running, the specific endpoint may not be functional.
  4. Confirm backup creation API endpoint exists
    Inspect network traffic or check the API documentation for the device to confirm the /v1/file/backup/create endpoint exists in the nas_svr component.
    Affected if The endpoint is not present in the installed version, the command injection vector does not exist.

The environment is affected if the device is a UGREEN DH2100+ NAS running firmware version 5.3.0.251125 or earlier, with the nas_svr component active and the backup creation API endpoint available.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade the UGREEN DH2100+ firmware to a version beyond 5.3.0.251125 to address the command injection vulnerability in the backup creation functionality.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Any firmware version newer than 5.3.0.251125 (e.g., latest DH2100+ firmware released by UGREEN)

  1. Log in to the UGREEN DH2100+ web interface and note the current firmware version under System Settings > Firmware/Upgrade.
  2. Visit the official UGREEN support or download page and locate the most recent firmware release for the DH2100+ (any version newer than 5.3.0.251125).
  3. Backup the device configuration via the admin panel to preserve settings.
  4. Upload and apply the new firmware using the device’s firmware upgrade function.
  5. After the device restarts, verify the new firmware version is displayed in the web UI.
  6. Confirm the vulnerability is remediated by attempting to access the /v1/file/backup/create endpoint with a test payload (e.g., using curl) – the request should be rejected or the service should respond with an error.
Caveat Firmware updates may reset certain settings; ensure you have a configuration backup and review release notes for any breaking changes.
