Remote command execution via Ping input
Published Jun 16, 2022 · Updated Jul 9, 2026
Command injection in Tenda HG9 v1.0.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands through the Ping function. The /boaform/formPing endpoint passes attacker-controlled Ping input to command execution without sufficient validation. Network reachability and authentication are required; successful exploitation can provide full device control and support botnet installation.
