Unauthenticated code execution via unchecked page parameter
Published Jul 14, 2026 · Updated Jul 14, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Tenda BE12 Pro 16.03.66.23 allows remote attackers to crash its web server or execute code via HTTP. The fromSafeMacFilter function passes the user-controlled page parameter to sprintf, which writes into a fixed 256-byte stack buffer without a length check. The endpoint accepts unauthenticated POST requests; the published proof of concept demonstrates a crash, while code execution remains an identified consequence of return-address corruption.
