Technical details
An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the Totolink CA750-PoE firmware version 6.2c.510. The flaw is located within the NTPSyncWithHost function in the /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi binary (specifically within system.so). The 'host_time' parameter is processed without sufficient sanitization before being passed to a system command execution call. A remote attacker with low-privileged authenticated access can exploit this by sending a crafted POST request containing shell metacharacters (e.g., backticks) in the host_time field. Successful exploitation allows for arbitrary command execution as the root user, as demonstrated by public proof-of-concept code that starts a telnet daemon.
