Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-119 | The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data. |
| CWE-120 | The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
CVE-2025-5737 is a critical buffer overflow vulnerability in the TOTOLINK X15 router firmware version 1.0.0-B20230714.1105. It occurs in the HTTP POST request handler at the endpoint /boafrm/formDosCfg, where manipulation of the submit-url parameter causes the device to improperly handle input data, leading to a buffer overflow. This flaw allows an attacker to remotely exploit the device by sending a specially crafted POST request, potentially causing denial of service or other security issues. [1, 2]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can impact you by allowing remote attackers to exploit the buffer overflow in the TOTOLINK X15 router, potentially leading to denial of service (DoS) conditions or compromise of the device's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Since the exploit is publicly available and requires no authentication, it poses a high risk of unauthorized access or disruption of network services relying on the affected router. [1, 2]
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
This vulnerability can be detected by monitoring for HTTP POST requests to the endpoint /boafrm/formDosCfg with suspicious or unusually large submit-url parameters that may trigger the buffer overflow. Network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) or web application firewalls (WAF) can be configured to alert on such requests. Specific commands are not provided in the resources, but capturing and analyzing HTTP POST traffic to /boafrm/formDosCfg using tools like tcpdump or Wireshark may help detect exploitation attempts. [1, 2]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
There are currently no known countermeasures or mitigations for this vulnerability. The recommended immediate step is to replace the affected TOTOLINK X15 device with an alternative product. Additionally, restricting access to the device from untrusted networks and monitoring for exploit attempts may help reduce risk until replacement is possible. [2]
