Unauthenticated router crash via unchecked strcpy
Published Jan 13, 2026 · Updated Jan 13, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Tenda AX-1806 firmware 1.0.0.1 allows remote attackers to crash the router via a crafted request. The sub_4CA50 function copies the user-controlled security_5g value into a 256-byte stack buffer with unbounded strcpy. No authentication or user interaction is required; an oversized value sent to /goform/WifiBasicSet interrupts the router's services.
