DescriptionCVE.org

A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the HTTP request parsing functionality of TL-MR6400 v7. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP request containing a malformed session cookie header.

Successful exploitation may cause the HTTP service process to crash, resulting in a denial-of-service condition and temporary loss of management or CGI functionality until service recovery.

AnalysisAI

NULL pointer dereference in TP-Link TL-MR6400 v7's HTTP request parsing crashes the management daemon when an unauthenticated adjacent-network attacker sends a specially crafted request containing a malformed session cookie header. Successful exploitation results in a denial-of-service condition, disabling the web management interface and CGI functionality until service recovery - no confidentiality or integrity compromise is possible. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to be on the adjacent network (AV:A) - the same LAN segment or a network from which the router's HTTP management interface (typically port 80 or 443) is directly reachable. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N, score 7.1) accurately captures the key constraints: the attack is limited to the adjacent network (AV:A), meaning internet-based exploitation is not possible unless management is explicitly exposed to the WAN - a non-default configuration. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
