Pre-authentication memory corruption via unbounded sprintf
Published Dec 19, 2025 · Updated Dec 19, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in TOTOLINK T10 4.1.8cu.5083_B20200521 allows remote attackers to corrupt memory via an HTTP login request. The pre-authentication login path in /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi uses sprintf to combine the POST body and Host header into a fixed 4,096-byte stack buffer without length checks. No authentication is required, and oversized input can corrupt memory and interrupt the router service; code execution has not been demonstrated.
