AI Analysis

Impact

The flaw is an incorrect access control on the getMacFilterRules function in the TOTOLINK T6 firmware 4.1.5cu.748_B20211015. An unauthenticated attacker can craft a POST request to /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi and retrieve the router's MAC filter list. This exposes confidential configuration data—including allowed and blocked MAC addresses—without requiring any login credentials. The weakness is a classic improper authorization flaw (CWE‑284).

Affected Systems

The issue impacts TOTOLINK T6 routers that are running firmware version 4.1.5cu.748_B20211015. No other TOTOLINK product lines or vendor families are listed as affected in the current disclosure.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates moderate severity for an information‑disclosure vulnerability, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of public exploitation. The flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, the likely attack vector is a remote HTTP POST request from any network able to reach the router's web interface. The vulnerability allows a read of the MAC filter configuration only; it does not provide authentication bypass for other privileged operations or remote code execution.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Download the latest firmware from the TOTOLINK official website and install it on the affected device to address the access control flaw.
  • If a firmware update is not immediately possible, block external access to /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi by configuring firewall rules or ACLs to allow only trusted internal IP addresses.
  • Restrict the router’s management interface to trusted networks and apply network segmentation to limit exposure to this vulnerability.
