Impact

This vulnerability is a stack-based buffer overflow in the boa formIpv6Setup dhcp_dns functionality of the Totolink X2000R. A specially crafted HTTP request that targets the dhcp_dns2 parameter can trigger the overflow, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the device.

Affected Systems

The affected product is the Totolink X2000R router running firmware version TOTOLINK-X2000R-Gh-V1.0.0-B20250421.1327. The vulnerability exists in the web management interface’s DHCP DNS configuration.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.1 indicates high severity, and the absence of an EPSS score suggests limited publicly available exploitation data. The vulnerability does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires an authenticated HTTP request, implying that attackers need prior access to the router’s management interface or credentials. Once authenticated, an attacker can send a malicious request to trigger the stack overflow and gain arbitrary code execution over the network.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Totolink X2000R to a firmware version that contains a fix for the dhcp_dns2 buffer overflow.
  • Restrict the router’s HTTP management interface to trusted networks or a VPN, and disable or limit DHCP DNS configuration when not required.
  • Implement network segmentation and firewall rules to block unauthorized access to the router’s management ports.
