Description
An
unauthenticated denial-of-service vulnerability was identified in TP-Link TL-MR100 v3.2, TL-MR150 v3.2, TL-MR6400 v8.0 and Archer MR600 v2, due to improper handling of exceptional request conditions
that may lead to a NULL pointer dereference. 
A remote attacker on an adjacent network can send a specially crated
HTTP request to trigger a crash of the HTTP service process.





Successful
exploitation may cause the HTTP service to crash, making the web management
interface and HTTP-dependent functionality temporarily unavailable.

AI Analysis

Impact

An unauthenticated denial‑of‑service flaw exists in the HTTP service of certain TP‑Link routers. The flaw is triggered by a NULL‑pointer dereference when the device receives a specially crafted HTTP request, causing the HTTP service process to crash. Successful exploitation leaves the web management interface and any HTTP‑dependent functions temporarily unavailable, resulting in a service interruption but no compromise of data or system configuration.

Affected Systems

TP‑Link Systems Inc. routers are affected. Specifically, the TL‑MR100 running firmware v3.2, the TL‑MR150 on firmware v3.2, the TL‑MR6400 with firmware v8.0, and the Archer MR600 using firmware v2. These firmware versions can be downloaded from TP‑Link’s support site.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 7.1, the vulnerability is rated as high severity. The EPSS score is not publicly available, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The attack requires no authentication and can be performed by any host on the same local area network or adjacent network that can reach the router’s HTTP interface. Exploitation results in a crash of the HTTP service, allowing a temporary denial of service to users and administrators of the affected routers.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the router firmware to the newest release available from TP‑Link (for example, versions newer than TL‑MR100 v3.2, TL‑MR150 v3.2, TL‑MR6400 v8.0, or Archer MR600 v2) to apply the vendor‑supplied fix.
  • Restrict access to the router’s HTTP management interface by implementing firewall rules or access control lists that block or limit traffic from untrusted networks.
  • Monitor the router’s system logs and network traffic for repeated malformed HTTP requests and consider deploying an intrusion detection system to alert on suspicious activity.
  • Apply any additional security hardening guidelines provided by TP‑Link, such as disabling unused services and ensuring that remote management is only enabled where absolutely required.
