Process-memory corruption via unchecked multipart boundary
Published Aug 28, 2026 · Updated Aug 28, 2026
Buffer overflow in the TL-WR841N v14 HTTP service allows remote attackers to corrupt process memory via crafted multipart requests. The service accepts an attacker-controlled multipart boundary without adequately validating its length and overwrites data beyond an internal buffer. No authentication or user interaction is required from an adjacent network, but only process-memory modification or corruption is established; code execution, disclosure, and service interruption remain undemonstrated.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
