TP-Link TL-WR841N vulnerabilities

TP-Link TL-WR841N v13 uses DES-CBC encryption in the TDDPv2 debug protocol with a cryptographic key derived from default web management credentials, making the key predictable if the device is left in default configuration.

A Null Pointer Dereference vulnerability exists in the referer header check of the web portal of TP-Link TL-WR841N v14, caused by improper input validation. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this flaw and cause Denial of Service on the web portal service. This issue affects TL-WR841N v14 before version 250908.

A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the embedded HTTP service in TL-WR841N v14 when processing multipart/form-data requests. Insufficient validation of an attacker-controlled boundary parameter may allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to submit a crafted request that corrupts memory by overwriting data beyond the bounds of an internal buffer.

A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in TL-WR841N v14 in the UPnP service when processing SOAP state variable query requests. A specially crafted SOAP query may trigger unexpected termination or instability of the process hosting the UPnP service.

A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in TL-WR841N v14 in the UPnP service when processing SOAP action requests. A specially crafted SOAP action request containing unexpected XML content may cause the UPnP daemon to terminate unexpectedly.

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the web management interface of TP-Link TL-WR841N v14 allows an authenticated remote attacker to crash the device by sending a crafted HTTP request. Successful exploitation leads to a denial-of-service condition, causing the device to crash and automatically reboot.

A buffer overflow in the httpd daemon on TP-Link TL-WR841N V12 (firmware 3.16.9) allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a GET request to the System Tools page of the Wi-Fi network. This also affects versions V11 and V10.
