CVE-2025-2731
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 H3C Magic NX15, Magic NX30 Pro, Magic NX400, Magic R3010 and Magic BE18000 up to V100R014. It has been declared as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file /api/wizard/getDualbandSync of the component HTTP POST Request Handler. The manipulation leads to command injection. The attack needs to be done within the local network. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
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 confidenceA command injection vulnerability exists in the HTTP POST Request Handler for the /api/wizard/getDualbandSync endpoint on H3C Magic NX15, NX30 Pro, NX400, R3010, and BE18000 routers up to V100R014. An attacker within the local network can inject arbitrary commands through manipulated POST requests to this API endpoint.

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.
-
Identify router modelAccess the router admin panel or check the device label to confirm the exact model (NX15, NX30 Pro, NX400, R3010, or BE18000)Affected if Model is one of NX15, NX30 Pro, NX400, R3010, or BE18000
-
Check firmware versionIn the router admin panel, navigate to System Settings, Status, or About page to view the current firmware version. Compare it to V100R014.Affected if Firmware version is at or below V100R014 (for example, V100R013, V100R012)
-
Verify API endpoint accessibilityFrom a machine on the same local network, attempt to reach http://<router-ip>/api/wizard/getDualbandSync using a GET or empty POST request to confirm the endpoint responds.Affected if The endpoint responds with any JSON or error message, indicating it is exposed
-
Confirm local network exposureVerify the router is accessible from devices on the internal network without authentication restrictions on the /api/wizard/ path.Affected if The router API is reachable from internal network hosts without requiring authentication for that endpoint
If the router model is H3C Magic NX15, NX30 Pro, NX400, R3010, or BE18000 and the firmware version is V100R014 or lower with the /api/wizard/getDualbandSync endpoint accessible, the environment is affected by CVE-2025-2731.

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 · scopedUpgrade affected H3C Magic router models to the latest firmware version beyond V100R014. Restrict network access to the affected API endpoints and monitor for indicators of compromise given the public exploit availability.
Latest firmware version newer than V100R014 from official H3C support (specific version number to be confirmed from H3C advisories)
- 1. Identify the current firmware version of the H3C Magic device by accessing the web administration interface or checking the device label
- 2. Visit the official H3C support website (www.h3c.com or zhiliao.h3c.com) and locate the firmware download section for your specific model (Magic NX15, NX30 Pro, NX400, R3010, or BE18000)
- 3. Download the latest firmware version that is newer than V100R014
- 4. Access the device's web administration panel and navigate to the firmware upgrade or system settings section
- 5. Upload and apply the new firmware version, ensuring the device remains powered on throughout the process
- 6. After the upgrade completes, verify the new firmware version is installed and test that the /api/wizard/getDualbandSync functionality works properly
- 7. Confirm the vulnerability is remediated by checking that command injection is no longer possible through the affected endpoint
