Remote memory corruption via unbounded password decoding
Published Mar 3, 2025 · Updated Mar 3, 2025
Buffer overflow in TOTOLINK EX1800T 9.1.0cu.2112_B20220316 allows remote attackers to corrupt memory through a crafted password. In /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi, loginAuth passes the attacker-controlled password parameter to urldecode without enforcing a safe input bound. VulDB scores the attack as requiring low privileges, while NVD scores it as unauthenticated; public evidence establishes neither code execution nor a specific crash mode.
