VAR-201211-0400
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-11 23:12Directory traversal vulnerability in the web-based management feature on the TP-LINK TL-WR841N router with firmware 3.13.9 build 120201 Rel.54965n and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the PATH_INFO to the help/ URI. The TP-LINK TL-WR841N is a router device. The TP-LINK TL-WR841N WEB management interface incorrectly filters URL parameters, allowing an attacker to exploit the vulnerability to view system file contents with WEB permissions. TP-LINK TL-WR841N router is prone to a local file-include vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to view files and execute local scripts in the context of the affected device. This may aid in further attacks. TP-LINK TL-WR841N 3.13.9 Build 120201 Rel.54965n is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. TP-LINK TL-WR841N is a wireless router product of China Pulian (TP-LINK) company
