Unauthenticated web-server crash via unchecked strcpy
Published Aug 18, 2025 · Updated Aug 18, 2025
Buffer overflow in TOTOLINK A3002R 4.0.0-B20230531.1404 allows remote attackers to crash its Boa web server via a crafted request. The handler at /boafrm/formFilter passes the POST url parameter to strcpy without validating its length, overflowing a destination buffer. No authentication or user interaction is required; exploitation interrupts the router's web management interface without reported confidentiality or integrity impact.
