CVE-2026-37152
UnknownSummary
TOTOLINK X5000R V9.1.0cu.2415_B20250515 was discovered to contain a hardcoded password for root access. This allows obtaining full access to the device without knowing individual credentials.
Risk Assessment
An attacker who knows the hardcoded password can gain full root access to the device, leading to takeover of the router and the entire network behind it. This may result in traffic interception, configuration changes, or use of the device for further attacks.
Recommendation
Check whether the vendor has released a firmware update fixing the issue and apply it immediately. If no update is available, consider replacing the device or isolating it in a separate, strictly controlled subnet.

- CVE-2026-15204Medium
A vulnerability was found in TOTOLINK X5000R versions 9.1.0cu.2415_B20250515 and 9.1.0cu.2350_B20230313 in the exportOvpn function of the /web/cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi file within the OpenVPN Export component. This vulnerability allows remote path traversal attacks.
- CVE-2025-67445High
A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the TOTOLINK X5000R router firmware version V9.1.0cu.2415_B20250515 in the CGI script /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi. The script reads the CONTENT_LENGTH environment variable and allocates memory using malloc(CONTENT_LENGTH + 1) without proper bounds checking. When the lighttpd request size limit is not enforced, a crafted large POST request can cause memory exhaustion or a segmentation fault, crashing the management CGI and causing loss of web interface availability.
- CVE-2023-33485High
TOTOLINK X5000R versions V9.1.0u.6118_B20201102 and V9.1.0u.6369_B20230113 contain a post-authentication buffer overflow vulnerability in the addEffect function via the sPort/ePort parameters.
