Lifecycle Timeline
8DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was determined in Totolink A7100RU 7.4cu.2313_b20191024. Affected by this issue is the function setLedCfg of the file /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi of the component CGI Handler. This manipulation of the argument enable causes os command injection. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.
AnalysisAI
OS command injection in Totolink A7100RU router firmware 7.4cu.2313_b20191024 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via the 'enable' parameter in the setLedCfg function of /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi. Public exploit code exists (GitHub), making this vulnerability immediately weaponizable with CVSS 9.8 (Critical). EPSS data not available, but no CISA KEV listing indicates no confirmed widespread exploitation despite POC availability.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in the CGI (Common Gateway Interface) handler of Totolink A7100RU residential router firmware, specifically within the setLedCfg configuration function accessible via /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi. This represents a classic CWE-78 OS Command Injection flaw where user-supplied input to the 'enable' parameter is not properly sanitized before being passed to system shell commands. CGI scripts in embedded devices often interact directly with system utilities through shell execution, and failure to validate input allows attackers to break out of intended command context using shell metacharacters (semicolons, pipes, backticks). The affected CPE (cpe:2.3:a:totolink:a7100ru) confirms this impacts the router's application firmware layer, where web-based management interfaces execute privileged system operations.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis despite public disclosure. Users should immediately check the Totolink official website (www.totolink.net) under support/downloads for firmware updates newer than 7.4cu.2313_b20191024 and apply if available. As interim mitigation, disable remote administration access to the router's web interface, restrict management interface access to trusted local networks only via firewall rules, and place the device behind a separate firewall that blocks external access to port 80/443 directed at the router. Consider replacing the device with actively supported hardware if Totolink does not release a security update within reasonable timeframe. Network segmentation can limit blast radius if device is compromised-isolate IoT/guest networks from critical systems.
