Description

TOTOLINK X6000R v9.4.0cu.1498_B20250826 contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the NTPSyncWithHost handler of the /usr/sbin/shttpd executable. The host_time parameter is retrieved via sub_40C404 and passed to a date -s shell command through CsteSystem. While the first two tokens of the input are validated, the remainder of the string is not sanitized, allowing authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands via shell metacharacters.

• CWE-78Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component.
• CWE-94Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment.
