CVE-2025-29635 is a command injection vulnerability affecting D-Link DIR-823X routers, including firmware versions 240126 and 240802/24082 as referenced in the provided content. The flaw is reachable through the router management interface via crafted POST requests to /goform/set_prohibiting. According to the supplied analysis, attacker-controlled input is incorporated into a shell command using snprintf() and then executed via system() without proper sanitization or validation. One referenced reverse-engineering analysis attributes the vulnerable path to function sub_42232C and indicates that a user-controlled parameter such as macaddr can inject shell metacharacters, resulting in arbitrary operating system command execution on the device.
