D-Link D-View 8 versions 2.0.1.107 and below contain an uncontrolled search path vulnerability in the installer. When executed with elevated privileges via UAC, the installer attempts to load version.dll from its execution directory, allowing DLL preloading. An attacker can supply a malicious version.dll alongside the legitimate installer so that, when a victim runs the installer and approves the UAC prompt, attacker-controlled code executes with administrator privileges. This can lead to full system compromise.
D-Link D-View 8 versions 2.0.1.107 and below contain an improper access control vulnerability in backend API endpoints. Any authenticated user can supply an arbitrary user_id value to retrieve sensitive credential data belonging to other users, including super administrators. The exposed credential material can be reused directly as a valid authentication secret, allowing full impersonation of the targeted account. This results in complete account takeover and full administrative control over the D-View system.
