TOTOLINK EX1200T, Buffer Overflow Vulnerability, CVE-2025-6143 (Critical)

Listen to this Post

How CVE-2025-6143 Works

The vulnerability exists in the `/boafrm/formNtp` endpoint of TOTOLINK EX1200T firmware version 4.1.2cu.5232_B20210713. When processing HTTP POST requests, the router fails to properly validate the length of user-supplied input in the `submit-url` parameter. This allows an attacker to send an overly long string, triggering a buffer overflow condition. The lack of bounds checking enables remote code execution with root privileges due to the service running as a privileged process. The exploit leverages crafted HTTP requests to overwrite critical memory addresses.

Severity: Critical
Date: 06/16/2025

Prediction: Patch by 08/2025

What Undercode Say

$ curl -X POST -d "submit-url=AAA...<5000 bytes>" http://target/boafrm/formNtp
$ nmap -p80 --script http-vuln-cve2025-6143 <target>
$ python3 exploit.py -t 192.168.1.1 -p 80

How Exploit

Crafted HTTP POST requests with oversized submit-url parameter trigger memory corruption, allowing arbitrary code execution. Public exploits leverage ROP chains to bypass ASLR.
