may be launched remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

prevent

Directly prevents OS command injection by validating and sanitizing the pppoeServiceName input argument in the setWanCfg CGI function.

prevent

Remediates the specific command injection flaw in the Totolink A7100RU firmware through timely identification, reporting, and patching.

prevent

Enforces authentication and authorization requirements to block unauthenticated remote access to the vulnerable CGI handler endpoint.

Security SummaryAI

CVE-2026-6155 is an OS command injection vulnerability affecting the Totolink A7100RU router running firmware version 7.4cu.2313. The flaw resides in the setWanCfg function within the /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi file of the CGI handler component, where manipulation of the pppoeServiceName argument enables command injection. It has been assigned CWE-77 and CWE-78, with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating critical severity due to its potential for complete system compromise.

The vulnerability is exploitable remotely by unauthenticated attackers with network access to the device. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary OS command execution, potentially granting full control over the router, including data exfiltration, modification of configurations, or disruption of services. A public exploit is available, increasing the risk of widespread attacks against exposed Totolink A7100RU devices.

Advisories from VulDB (vuln/357035) and a related GitHub repository detail the vulnerability and proof-of-concept exploit. Security practitioners should consult the Totolink manufacturer website (totolink.net) and VulDB references for any firmware updates or mitigation guidance, as no specific patches are detailed in the available information.
