Unauthenticated memory corruption via LangType stack overflow
Published Jun 4, 2025 · Updated Jun 4, 2025
Stack-based buffer overflow in TOTOLINK EX1200T 4.1.2cu.5232_B20210713 allows remote attackers to corrupt memory via LangType. The setLanguageCfg function in /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi fails to bound LangType before the value overwrites its destination stack buffer. No authentication or user interaction is required; exploitation can crash the CGI process or redirect execution with the process's privileges.
