Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-11-18 15:28

In TP-Link routers, Archer C5 and WR710N-V1, running the latest available code, when receiving HTTP Basic Authentication the httpd service can be sent a crafted packet that causes a heap overflow. This can result in either a DoS (by crashing the httpd process) or an arbitrary code execution. TP-Link router WR710N-V1-151022 running firmware published 2015-10-22 and Archer-C5-V2-160201 running firmware published 2016-02-01 are susceptible to two vulnerabilities:CVE-2022-4498 Unknown CVE-2022-4499 UnknownCVE-2022-4498 Unknown CVE-2022-4499 Unknown. TP-Link router Archer C5 and WR710N-V1 Exists in a classic buffer overflow vulnerability.Information is obtained, information is tampered with, and service operation is interrupted. (DoS) It may be in a state
