Continued session access via unexpired logout token
Published Jan 26, 2024 · Updated Aug 23, 2024
Insufficient session expiration in TOTOLINK N200RE V5 9.3.5u.6255_B20211224 allows remote attackers to retain access after logout. The /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi logout path fails to invalidate the active login token, leaving it accepted for later requests. Exploitation requires possession of a previously valid token and permits continued access with that session's privileges.
