DescriptionCVE.org

A weakness has been identified in Totolink A8000RU 7.1cu.643_b20200521. This issue affects the function setMacFilterRules of the file /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi of the component Web Management Interface. This manipulation of the argument enable causes os command injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks.

AnalysisAI

OS command injection in the Totolink A8000RU router (firmware 7.1cu.643_b20200521) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands by manipulating the 'enable' argument passed to the setMacFilterRules function in /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi. Publicly available exploit code exists per VulDB, and SSVC categorizes the technical impact as total with automatable exploitation, though EPSS remains modest at 0.89% (76th percentile).

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires network reachability to the router's Web Management Interface on /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi and a Totolink A8000RU running firmware 7.1cu.643_b20200521; no authentication, user interaction, or non-default configuration is required per the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment CVSS 4.0 vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N with VC:H/VI:H/VA:H scores 8.9 (High) and indicates remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity exploitation yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the device. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who can reach the router's web management interface - for example, a malicious device on the LAN or any internet host if WAN-side management is enabled - sends a crafted HTTP request to /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi invoking setMacFilterRules with a shell metacharacter payload in the 'enable' argument. The injected command executes in the router's OS context (typically root on embedded Linux), giving the attacker persistent control over traffic, DNS, and downstream hosts. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - Totolink has not published a fixed firmware version in the referenced advisories (VulDB entries at https://vuldb.com/vuln/365414 and the NVD record https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-9433). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

24 hours: Identify all Totolink A8000RU routers in production; immediately segment from critical networks and restrict WAN access to management interfaces. …
