Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2026-4210 is a command injection vulnerability (CWE-74, CWE-77) discovered in multiple D-Link NAS devices, including DNS-120, DNR-202L, DNS-315L, DNS-320, DNS-320L, DNS-320LW, DNS-321, DNR-322L, DNS-323, DNS-325, DNS-326, DNS-327L, DNR-326, DNS-340L, DNS-343, DNS-345, DNS-726-4, DNS-1100-4, DNS-1200-05, and DNS-1550-04, with firmware versions up to 20260205. The issue affects the cgi_tm_set_share function in the /cgi-bin/time_machine.cgi file, where manipulation of the "Name" argument triggers the injection.

The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) and can be exploited remotely by an attacker with low privileges. Exploitation enables limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, such as arbitrary command execution on the affected device.

Advisories and further details, including the publicly released exploit, are documented on VulDB (ctiid.351121, id.351121, submit.770440) and a GitHub repository at https://github.com/wudipjq/my_vuln/blob/main/D-Link8/vuln_159/159.md, with a general reference to the D-Link website at https://www.dlink.com/. Specific mitigation or patch guidance is not detailed in the CVE description.

The public availability of the exploit heightens the risk of real-world attacks against unpatched devices.
