Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2024-35387 is a critical-severity Stack-based Buffer Overflow (CWE-121) vulnerability in Totolink Lr350 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked in the top 7% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
TOTOLINK LR350 firmware version V9.3.5u.6369_B20220309 contains a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the loginAuth function. The flaw is triggered when the http_host parameter is processed, allowing an attacker to overwrite the stack and potentially corrupt memory. The issue is tracked as CVE-2024-35387 with a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8 and is classified under CWE-121.
An unauthenticated attacker with network access can exploit the vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request containing an oversized or malicious http_host value. Successful exploitation can lead to arbitrary code execution, full device compromise, or a denial-of-service condition without any user interaction or credentials.
Public details are available in a GitHub vulnerability report that demonstrates the flaw through proof-of-concept input. The EPSS score has remained modest, reaching a peak of 0.0996 and currently sitting at 0.0786, indicating limited observed exploitation interest to date. No vendor advisory or firmware update information is referenced in the available sources.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and analysis can discover stack-buffer overflows before deployment.
Input validation directly stops untrusted data from exceeding stack buffer bounds.
Memory-protection mechanisms limit the ability to execute injected code after a stack overflow.
Secure-engineering principles include bounds-checked coding and safe buffer handling that avoid introducing the flaw.
