Authenticated service crash via unbounded schedule copies
Published Jun 8, 2026 · Updated Jun 8, 2026
Heap buffer overflow in Tenda CX12L 16.03.53.12 allows remote authenticated users to crash the management service via schedule times. setSchedWifi allocates 25 bytes, then uses unbounded strcpy operations to copy attacker-controlled schedStartTime and schedEndTime values at fixed offsets. Management access is required; the published proof of concept demonstrates an HTTP-service crash, while code execution remains unverified.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
