CVE-2016-10372 is a remote command-injection vulnerability in Eir D1000 modems caused by insufficient restriction of the TR-064 management protocol. Remote attackers can access the service over TCP port 7547 and exploit shell injection in NTP-server configuration through the NewNTPServer feature. Demonstrated exploitation includes enabling WAN access to the web-management interface on TCP port 80, retrieving the login password, which defaults to the Wi-Fi password, and executing arbitrary commands. Exploit implementations are incorporated into IoT botnets including Hajime, Mirai.TBOT, Cling, and ToxNetV2.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (tr064_ntpserver_cmdinject.rb) that exploits a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2016-10372) in Zyxel/Eir D1000 DSL modems and similar devices. The exploit targets the TR-064 SOAP-based configuration protocol, specifically the SetNTPServers action, which is accessible without authentication on TCP port 7547. By injecting shell commands into the NewNTPServer1 parameter, the module achieves remote code execution as a privileged user. The exploit uses Metasploit's CmdStager to deliver a staged payload, typically resulting in a shell on the device. The module is operational and requires the target device to be running a vulnerable firmware version with the TR-064 service exposed. The main endpoints involved are the /UD/act?1 SOAP endpoint for exploitation and /globe for vulnerability checking. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit exploit module.
