CVE-2019-13561
D-Link DIR-655 C devices before 3.02B05 BETA03 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the online_firmware_check.cgi check_fw_url parameter.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.43%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
