Unauthenticated router crash via unchecked string copy
Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Mar 5, 2025
Buffer overflow in Tenda AC6 firmware 15.03.05.16 allows remote attackers to crash the router via a crafted cmdinput parameter. The formexeCommand function passes the cmdinput value to strcpy, which copies more than 512 bytes into a fixed-size destination without a bounds check. The HTTP endpoint accepts the demonstrated request without authentication, and the grounded consequence is a service-interrupting crash.
