D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) lifecycle status — the real story
D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS units are the consumer and small-office devices that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog keeps returning to: the catalog holds 27 D-Link entries and, for most of them, CISA's required action reads that the impacted product is end-of-life and should be disconnected if still in use. Cycles on this page are the models named in those KEV entries that also appear on D-Link Systems' (US) Legacy Products list, which publishes a Last Day of Support per model. D-Link's own words on that list: the resources associated with these products have ceased their development and are no longer supported, and D-Link recommends retiring them and replacing them with products that receive firmware updates. Every date is that list's Last Day of Support, re-checked at every build.
Field mapping: eol is D-Link's Last Day of Support; D-Link publishes no separate end-of-sale or release date on the list, so the release and support columns are left blank rather than filled with a proxy. Models named in KEV but absent from the US legacy list (DIR-820 without the L suffix, DIR-300, DIR-610, DSL-2750B, DSL-2760U, DCS-2670L, DWL-2600AP) and current models (DIR-823X) are not modelled here; D-Link's regional lists differ and we do not substitute one region's date for another.
The dates. DIR-859 reached its Last Day of Support on December 10, 2020 and has two KEV entries, CVE-2019-17621 (added June 29, 2023) and CVE-2024-0769 (added June 25, 2025); D-Link's security announcement SAP10371 confirms the model is end of support and points to the legacy list. DIR-820L ended on November 1, 2017 (CVE-2022-26258, added September 8, 2022; announcement SAP10264 states the DIR-810L, 820L, 830L, 826L and 836L have reached end of life and should be retired and replaced). The ShareCenter NAS units, DNS-320L and DNS-327L on May 31, 2020, DNS-340L on July 31, 2019, DNS-325 on September 1, 2017 and DNS-320 on December 1, 2018, carry CVE-2024-3272 and CVE-2024-3273 (added April 11, 2024), CVE-2019-16057 and CVE-2020-25506. DNR-322L ended on November 30, 2021 (CVE-2022-40799, added August 5, 2025); DCS-2530L on September 17, 2021 (CVE-2020-25078 and CVE-2020-25079, added August 5, 2025); DCS-930L on October 31, 2018 (CVE-2016-11021); DIR-645 on December 31, 2018 (CVE-2015-2051); DIR-825 on September 1, 2015 (CVE-2020-29557); DIR-605 on February 1, 2015 (CVE-2021-40655); and DIR-600 on December 1, 2010 (CVE-2014-100005, a 2014 flaw added to KEV in May 2024).
Every model on this page is an end-of-support edge device in the sense of CISA BOD 26-02, and for these the directive's answer and the vendor's are the same: retire and replace. There is no firmware coming.
D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) release and support pattern
Of the 14 release lines tracked, 14 are past end of life and 0 are still within support.
Computed from the tracked release data at every build — the figures above are the dates in the table, restated, not an editorial estimate.
D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) security intelligence
CISA KEV history: D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) is named in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog 15 times, most recently on 2025-08-05, including use in ransomware campaigns. Derived from CISA's live catalog at every build.
What does D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) end of life mean for your organization?
When a version of D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) reaches end of life, the maintainers stop issuing security patches. Vulnerabilities discovered after this date are publicly disclosed on the National Vulnerability Database, exploit code appears on GitHub, and your systems remain permanently exposed.
The CVE blind spot: Most vulnerability scanners check for known CVEs but do not flag the accumulation of unpatched vulnerabilities in EOL software. With a zero-day, nobody knows about the vulnerability. With EOL software, the vulnerability is public — listed, rated, and often weaponized — but no patch will ever exist. This is the most dangerous gap in enterprise security posture.
Organizations running EOL D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) should treat it as a vulnerability class in their risk register, apply compensating controls (network segmentation, enhanced monitoring, access restriction), and prioritize migration to a supported version.
Your options when D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) reaches end of life
There are four realistic paths. Which one is right depends far more on how long the system needs to keep running than on the version you are on today.
| Option | Best when | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Move to a supported version | The system will outlive the current version's support window and you can schedule the work | Budget for compatibility testing, not just the upgrade itself — that is where the real cost sits |
| Replace the component | The project is unmaintained, or a better-supported alternative exists | The replacement has its own lifecycle and its own end-of-life date — you are changing vendors, not escaping the problem |
| Buy extended support | Migration is genuinely underway but cannot finish before the deadline, or the workload is frozen by certification or a third-party application | A bridge, not a destination — every year purchased is a year the migration still has to happen |
| Document accepted risk | The system is isolated, short-lived, or scheduled for retirement | Only defensible with real compensating controls and a written decision — auditors treat undocumented end-of-life software as a finding |
How to choose, in one question: how many more years does this system need to run? Under a year, extended support (where it exists) is usually cheaper than an emergency migration. One to three years, migrate — support purchased repeatedly costs more than doing the project once, and the project only gets harder as the version ages. Indefinitely, migrate now and plan the next migration before it surprises you.
Worth saying plainly, because vendors selling extended support rarely will: extended support is often the more expensive choice over a multi-year horizon. It is the right answer when a deadline is genuinely unreachable, not as a default. Compare the annual fee against the one-time cost of migrating before committing to either.

Extended Support Options
If you cannot migrate immediately, extended support vendors provide continued security patches for EOL D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) versions. This is a bridge, not a permanent solution — plan your migration in parallel.
D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) has 14 versions past end of life — security patches have stopped, but CVE disclosures haven't. Extended support past the official date exists for many products in this position — whether it exists for D-Link legacy routers, cameras and NAS (hardware) is exactly what we check. Tell us where to reach you and we'll reply with matched options and pricing guidance — or an honest "no vendor covers this."
