D-Link DWL-2600AP version 4.2.0.15 Rev A contains an authenticated OS command injection vulnerability in the Restore Configuration functionality of the web interface. An attacker with valid credentials can inject arbitrary shell commands via the 'configRestore' or 'configServerip' parameters in the 'admin.cgi?action=config_restore' endpoint, due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting DLINK DWL-2600 access points vulnerable to authenticated OS command injection (CVE-2019-20499). The exploit requires valid credentials (default: admin/admin) to authenticate to the device's web interface. It sends a specially crafted HTTP POST request to /admin.cgi, injecting arbitrary commands via the configServerip parameter in a multipart/form-data payload. The module supports both direct command execution and staged payloads (e.g., using wget for MIPSLE Linux binaries). The exploit is weaponized, allowing for flexible payload delivery and full device compromise. The code is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's HttpClient and CmdStager mixins. No hardcoded IPs or external domains are present; the target endpoint is the device's web interface, typically accessed over the local network or VPN.
