TP-LINK TL-IPC544EP-W4, Buffer Overflow, CVE-2025-XXXX (Critical)

Listen to this Post

The CVE-2025-XXXX vulnerability in TP-LINK TL-IPC544EP-W4 firmware version 1.0.9 arises due to improper bounds checking in the `sub_69064` function within /bin/main. When processing the `text` argument, the function fails to validate input length, leading to a buffer overflow. Attackers can remotely exploit this by sending crafted payloads, potentially allowing arbitrary code execution or device crash. The exploit leverages unchecked memory operations, and since the vendor has not responded, public exploits may remain unpatched.
