AI Analysis

Impact

The totallink T6 router contains an access control flaw in the setWiFiScheduleCfg function, allowing an attacker who can reach the web interface to send a crafted POST request to /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi and modify the Wi‑Fi availability schedule without authentication. The attacker could effectively turn the wireless network off or on at will, resulting in a loss of connectivity for all users attached to the router.

Affected Systems

The flaw is found in TOTOLINK T6 routers running firmware version 4.1.5cu.748_B20211015. It is unknown whether earlier or later firmware revisions contain the same oversight, so any devices using that exact build are certainly impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

Because the vulnerability can be exercised from an unauthenticated session, no special credentials are required. The CVSS score is 5.4, indicating moderate impact, while the EPSS score is <1%, suggesting a low exploitation probability. The KEV catalog does not list this issue, yet the high impact on network availability warrants prompt action. The attack path consists of locating the vulnerable router, establishing an HTTP connection, and issuing the POST request with a crafted payload to alter the schedule. Once successful, the attacker controls when the wireless network is operational.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Verify and apply the latest TOTOLINK firmware that patches the setWiFiScheduleCfg access control flaw.
  • Configure the router’s web management interface to require authentication for all CGI endpoints, especially /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi.
  • Restrict the internal network or firewall to block unauthenticated HTTP traffic to the router’s administration ports, or place the router behind a secure VPN tunnel to limit exposure.
