Unauthenticated administrator takeover via exposed reset pages
Published Feb 17, 2023 · Updated Mar 18, 2025
Incorrect authorization in TOTOLINK A720R firmware 4.1.5cu.532_B20210610 allows remote attackers to reset the administrator password. The web interface exposes the /wizard.html and /phone/wizard.html reset pages without requiring an authenticated session. Network reachability is the only reported gate; successful use replaces the administrator credential and grants control of the router's administrator account.
