Description
CVE-2026-5851 is a critical OS command injection vulnerability in the Totolink A7100RU router firmware version 7.4cu.2313_b20191024. The flaw exists in the setUPnPCfg function within the /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi CGI handler, where manipulation of the 'enable' argument allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication and has a high CVSS 4.0 score of 9.3. Although the exploit code has been publicly released, no official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor. There is no indication that this is a cloud service, so remediation depends on vendor firmware updates.
