Published Dec 5, 2019
·
Updated

D-Link DAP-1860 devices before v1.04b03 Beta allow access to administrator functions without authentication via the HNAPAUTH header timestamp value. In HTTP requests, part of the HNAPAUTH header is the timestamp used to determine the time when the user sent the request. If this value is equal to the value stored in the device's /var/hnap/timestamp file, the request will pass the HNAPAUTH check function.
