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-2025-5785 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/formWirelessTbl, where the manipulation of the submit-url argument allows an attacker to overflow a buffer by sending a specially crafted POST request. This improper input handling can cause the device to malfunction or crash. [1, 2]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can be exploited remotely without authentication, allowing attackers to disrupt the router's functionality, potentially causing denial of service (DoS). It impacts the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device, making it highly dangerous. There are no known mitigations or patches, so affected devices may need to be replaced to avoid exploitation. [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 HTTP POST requests to the endpoint `/boafrm/formWirelessTbl` on TOTOLINK X15 routers running firmware version 1.0.0-B20230714.1105. Specifically, look for suspicious or unusually large POST requests manipulating the `submit-url` argument, which may indicate an attempt to exploit the buffer overflow. Network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) can be configured to alert on POST requests to this endpoint. Commands such as using curl to test the endpoint or using packet capture tools like tcpdump or Wireshark to monitor traffic to the router on port 80 or 443 can help detect exploit attempts. For example, a curl command to test the endpoint might be: `curl -X POST http://<router-ip>/boafrm/formWirelessTbl -d 'submit-url=...'` with crafted payloads. However, no specific detection commands or signatures are provided in the resources. [1, 2]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
There are no known countermeasures or official patches currently available for this vulnerability. The recommended immediate step is to replace the affected TOTOLINK X15 router running firmware version 1.0.0-B20230714.1105 with an alternative device that is not vulnerable. Additionally, restricting or blocking HTTP POST requests to the `/boafrm/formWirelessTbl` endpoint at the network perimeter or firewall may reduce exposure. Monitoring for exploit attempts and isolating vulnerable devices from untrusted networks are also advisable interim measures. [2]
