Code execution via unbounded security_5g stack copy
Published Jun 29, 2026 · Updated Jun 29, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Tenda JD12L 16.03.53.23 allows remote attackers to execute code through a crafted security_5g value. formWifiBasicSet passes the POST parameter to strcpy without checking its length against a 256-byte stack buffer. The CNA scores low-privilege access, while the linked proof of concept reports no authentication; exploitation can crash the web service or overwrite control data.
