Lifecycle Timeline
8DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in Totolink A7100RU 7.4cu.2313_b20191024. This affects the function setAppCfg of the file /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi of the component CGI Handler. Executing a manipulation of the argument enable can lead to os command injection. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used.
AnalysisAI
OS command injection in Totolink A7100RU router firmware (version 7.4cu.2313_b20191024) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via the 'enable' parameter in the setAppCfg function of /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi. CVSS 9.8 critical severity with network attack vector, low complexity, and no authentication required. Publicly available exploit code exists on GitHub, significantly lowering the barrier to exploitation, though no CISA KEV listing indicates targeted campaigns have not been observed at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability affects the CGI (Common Gateway Interface) handler in Totolink A7100RU wireless router firmware, specifically within the setAppCfg function accessible via /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi endpoint. The root cause is CWE-78 (OS Command Injection), where user-supplied input to the 'enable' parameter is not properly sanitized before being passed to system shell commands. CGI scripts in embedded device firmware frequently suffer from insufficient input validation when interfacing between web requests and underlying Linux system calls. The affected product (CPE 2.3:a:totolink:a7100ru) is a consumer-grade wireless router, and the vulnerable firmware version 7.4cu.2313_b20191024 was released in October 2019. Command injection flaws in router administration interfaces are particularly severe because they grant attackers direct system-level access to the device's operating system, bypassing application-layer controls entirely.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis from available reference data. Organizations using Totolink A7100RU routers should immediately check the vendor website at https://www.totolink.net/ and contact Totolink technical support directly to inquire about patched firmware releases addressing CVE-2026-6115. As immediate risk mitigation, restrict network access to the router's administrative interface (/cgi-bin/ endpoints) to trusted management networks only, blocking internet-facing access via firewall rules or disabling remote administration features entirely. Implement network segmentation to isolate affected routers from critical infrastructure. Monitor for unusual outbound connections or system command execution patterns. Given the age of the vulnerable firmware (October 2019) and typical end-of-life cycles for consumer networking equipment, organizations should evaluate replacing affected devices with current-generation routers from vendors with stronger security update commitments.
