AI Analysis

Impact

This vulnerability is a stack‑based buffer overflow located in the Boa formIpv6Setup DHCP DNS configuration of the Totolink X2000R firmware. A specially crafted HTTP request that targets the dhcp_dns1 parameter can corrupt the stack, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the device. The description indicates that the attacker must have authenticated access to the HTTP management interface to trigger the overflow.

Affected Systems

Totolink X2000R devices running firmware version TOTOLINK‑X2000R‑Gh‑V1.0.0‑B20250421.1327 are affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.1 classifies this flaw as critical. EPSS information is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, yet the required authenticated HTTP request and the nature of the buffer overflow suggest that an adversary with network or local network access could exploit it. An attacker would prepare a malicious HTTP request, send it through the device’s management interface, and cause the plugin to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the device process.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest firmware update that addresses the DHCP DNS buffer overflow immediately.
  • If an update is unavailable, disable the HTTP management interface or restrict it to trusted IP addresses, and disable any configuration paths that invoke the formIpv6Setup functionality.
  • Deploy network segmentation to isolate the device from the broader network and monitor for anomalous HTTP traffic.
  • Maintain a log review process to detect any attempts to exploit the vulnerable dhcp_dns1 interface.
