Deeper analysis

D-Link Go-RT-AC750 firmware revision revA_v101b03 contains a command-injection flaw (CWE-78) in the genacgi_main function, where the service parameter is passed to the operating system without adequate sanitization. The vulnerability received a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8, reflecting network-accessible exploitation that requires neither authentication nor user interaction.

An unauthenticated attacker who can reach the device’s web interface can supply a crafted service value that results in arbitrary command execution, granting complete control over the router’s operating system, configuration, and any attached network resources.

D-Link has published a security bulletin addressing the affected model; administrators should consult the vendor advisory for available firmware updates or configuration guidance.

The CVE maintains a high EPSS score (current 0.6355, peak 0.6895), and public technical details including a proof-of-concept have been posted on GitHub, indicating sustained interest in the issue after disclosure.
