Unauthenticated command execution via unescaped iface argument
Published Feb 21, 2025 · Updated Feb 21, 2025
Command injection in TOTOLINK X5000R firmware 9.1.0u.6369_B20230113 allows remote attackers to execute commands via a crafted iface value. The vif_disable function concatenates the untrusted iface argument into an ifconfig shell command and passes it to os.execute without validation or escaping. No authentication or user interaction is required; executed commands operate with the vulnerable web process's permissions.
