The CVE-2025-46060 vulnerability in TOTOLINK N600R routers involves a buffer overflow in the UPLOAD_FILENAME component. When processing file upload requests, the device fails to properly validate the length of the filename parameter, allowing an attacker to overwrite adjacent memory locations. This occurs due to improper bounds checking in the firmware’s file handling routine. By crafting a malicious HTTP request with an excessively long filename (typically > 512 bytes), an attacker can corrupt memory structures and ultimately achieve remote code execution with root privileges. The vulnerability is network-exploitable without authentication.
