Unauthenticated memory corruption via downloadFile.cgi overflow
Published Apr 22, 2025 · Updated Apr 23, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in downloadFile.cgi in TOTOLINK router firmware allows remote attackers to cause unspecified impact via crafted requests. The public disclosure does not identify the request parameter, destination stack buffer, or unchecked copy operation that triggers the overwrite. No authentication or user interaction is required, but the demonstrated consequence and reliable post-overflow control are not documented.
