# DrayTek Vigor2960 router: unrestricted file upload via mainfunction.cgi

DrayTek Vigor2960 firmware 1.5.1.6 Revision 8218 has a flaw in the commonupload component of /cgi-bin/mainfunction.cgi, where manipulating the upload_path and upload_name arguments allows unrestricted file upload. An attacker who reaches the device remotely can place files on it, and a public exploit exists.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the firmware version in the router admin UI under System Maintenance, or run `show version` on the device CLI, and look for `1.5.1.6` with Revision `8218`.
- Confirm whether the web admin interface is reachable from the internet.

## Fix

- Upgrade the Vigor2960 firmware to `1.5.1.7` or later, per the vendor advisory cited in the source.
- The vendor says the 2960 is end-of-support with limited fixes, so if no further patch is available, restrict or replace the device.
