CVE-2026-9513: Totolink CA750-PoE Setting cstecgi.cgi NTPSyncWithHost os command injection
A weakness has been identified in Totolink CA750-PoE 6.2c.510. This issue affects the function NTPSyncWithHost of the file /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi of the component Setting Handler. Executing a manipulation of the argument host_time can lead to os command injection. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks.
CVE-2026-9513 is an OS command injection issue in Totolink CA750-PoE firmware 6.2c.510. A remote authenticated user may be able to abuse the device setting handler to run unintended system commands. Public exploit material exists, but the bundle does not show confirmed active exploitation or a vendor fix.
Executive priority
Treat this as a moderate, near-term network appliance risk. Public exploit availability raises urgency, but authentication is required and active exploitation is not confirmed. Prioritize exposed or remotely administered devices first.
Technical view
The flaw affects NTPSyncWithHost in /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi, where manipulation of the host_time argument can lead to OS command injection. VulDB maps it to CWE-77 and CWE-78. The CVSS v2 score is 6.5 with network access, low complexity, single authentication, and partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
Likely exposure
Known exposure is Totolink CA750-PoE running firmware 6.2c.510. Risk is higher if the management interface is reachable from untrusted networks or exposed to the internet. The supplied sources do not establish other affected versions, other Totolink products, or default unauthenticated exposure.
Exploitation context
The sources state the attack can be launched remotely and that exploit material is public. CVSS indicates authentication is required. CISA KEV status is false in the bundle, and no cited source confirms active exploitation in the wild.
Researcher notes
Evidence supports command injection through host_time in NTPSyncWithHost on CA750-PoE 6.2c.510. Patch availability is not identified in the bundle. Avoid assuming broader product impact without vendor confirmation or additional testing.
Mitigation direction
Check Totolink advisories and firmware downloads for an official fix.
Remove management access from the public internet.
Restrict administration to trusted networks or VPN-only access.
Use strong unique administrator credentials and rotate shared passwords.
Monitor for suspicious requests to the affected CGI setting handler.
Validation and detection
Inventory Totolink CA750-PoE devices and confirm firmware versions.
Verify whether any device runs firmware 6.2c.510.
Check external exposure of device management interfaces.
Review logs for access to /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi setting actions.
Confirm vendor remediation status before declaring devices fixed.

These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve
time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present,
the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
