Deeper analysis

TOTOlink A7100RU V7.4cu.2313_B20191024 contains a command injection vulnerability in the web management interface. The flaw is triggered through the wanStrategy parameter passed to the /setting/setWanIeCfg endpoint and is tracked as CWE-77. The device firmware version listed is the only release explicitly identified as affected.

Unauthenticated attackers with network access can supply crafted input to the parameter and execute arbitrary operating-system commands. Successful exploitation yields full control over the device, allowing confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts without requiring credentials or user interaction.

Public references consist of proof-of-concept material hosted on GitHub that demonstrates the injection. The EPSS score for the CVE rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.3113 on 2025-01-22 before receding to its current value of 0.0516, indicating a period of increased exploitation interest well after the original disclosure.
