| Impact | This vulnerability presents significant real-world risk despite a CVSS 6.9 score. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms network accessibility (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no authentication required (PR:N), and no user interaction needed (UI:N), indicating broad exploitability. The availability of publicly available exploit code (POC confirmed in input) combined with the unauthenticated, network-accessible attack surface makes this a practical threat to unpatched Totolik routers. The EPSS evidence indicator (E:P) reflects public exploit availability. While the confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts are marked as low in the CVSS vector (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L), OS command injection on a network device typically permits lateral movement, credential theft, and network pivoting-understating the true impact. Routers are persistent network perimeter devices; compromise facilitates long-term attacks on connected infrastructure. This is a genuine priority for router operators. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker on the public internet identifies a Totolink A7100RU router running vulnerable firmware 7.4cu.2313_b20191024 by scanning for the management interface. The attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi with a malicious mode parameter containing OS commands (e.g., shell metacharacters or command chains). Because the function does not validate the parameter, the command is executed with the privileges of the web server process, allowing the attacker to read configuration files, modify routing tables, capture network traffic, or establish persistence on the device. The publicly available exploit code lowers the skill threshold for this attack. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 06, 2026
OS command injection in Totolink A7100RU firmware version 7.4cu.2313_b20191024 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via manipulation of the mode parameter in the setScheduleCfg function of /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi. Publicly available exploit code exists for this vulnerability, creating immediate risk for exposed devices.
RemediationAI
Contact Totolink support and consult https://www.totolink.net/ for the latest firmware release that patches this vulnerability; no specific fixed version number is provided in the available advisory data. Interim mitigation prior to patching includes restricting network access to the router's web management interface (port 80/443) using firewall rules, disabling remote management features if not required, and isolating the device to trusted networks only. Change default credentials immediately if not already done. Monitor for unauthorized command execution by reviewing router logs for suspicious cgi-bin requests or mode parameters in the schedule configuration endpoint.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability stems from insufficient input validation in a CGI script (cstecgi.cgi) that handles schedule configuration on the Totolink A7100RU wireless router. The setScheduleCfg function fails to properly sanitize the mode parameter before passing it to an OS command execution context, enabling command injection (CWE-78). The attack vector is network-accessible, targeting the web-based management interface of the device. Affected devices are identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:totolink:a7100ru with firmware version 7.4cu.2313_b20191024 and potentially other versions in the A7100RU product line.
