CVE-2026-17251 — Unauthenticated Denial of Service via Null Pointer Dereference in HTTP Request Parsing

A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the HTTP request parsing functionality of TL-MR6400 v7. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP request containing a malformed session cookie header. Successful exploitation may cause the HTTP service process to crash, resulting in a denial-of-service condition and temporary loss of management or CGI functionality until service recovery.
