Authentication bypass via literal user credentials
Published Jan 16, 2025 · Updated Feb 3, 2025
Authentication bypass in Tenda AC6 v2.0 firmware 15.03.06.50 allows context-dependent attackers to access router administration. The /login/Auth handler accepts the literal username and password value user instead of the configured administrator credentials. Exploitation requires interception and modification of a login request and exposes router configuration to unauthorized changes and information disclosure.
