Technical details

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the Totolink CA750-PoE firmware version 6.2c.510. The flaw is located within the 'setUpgradeUboot' function in the '/cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi' handler, specifically due to improper neutralization of the 'FileName' argument. A remote attacker with low privileges can send a crafted POST request containing shell metacharacters (e.g., backticks) in the FileName parameter to execute arbitrary OS commands on the underlying system. Public exploit code demonstrates that this can be used to start a telnet daemon and gain root shell access.
