Specifically, an attacker can send a specially crafted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ameeba.com\/blog\/cve-2025-6162-critical-buffer-overflow-vulnerability-in-totolink-ex1200t-http-post-request-handler\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"62239\">HTTP POST request<\/a> to the &#8216;\/boafrm\/formTmultiAP&#8217; endpoint.
