CVE-2022-28958 was reported as a command injection vulnerability in the D-Link DIR-816L router, allegedly allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the shareport.php endpoint. However, extensive analysis and testing have shown that the original proof of concept was flawed, targeting the wrong endpoint and providing no evidence of successful exploitation. The set() function in shareport.php only updates the router's XML configuration database and does not execute commands. No evidence of exploitation has been found in local testing, internet-facing devices, or honeypot data. The CVE is considered erroneous and has been disputed with MITRE and CISA.
