Executive Summary

[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': "This vulnerability is a stack-based buffer overflow found in the TOTOLINK A950RG router firmware version V4.1.2cu.5204_B20210112. It occurs in the setIpQosRules interface within the /lib/cste_modules/firewall.so file. The issue arises because the 'comment' parameter is not properly validated for its length, allowing an attacker to overflow the buffer on the stack."}] [1]
