Authenticated code execution via unchecked sprintf
Published Mar 30, 2026 · Updated Mar 30, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Tenda CH22 Firmware 1.0.0.1 and 1.If allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code. In fromSetCfm, a save_list_data request passes the user-controlled funcpara1 value through sub_39798 to sprintf in sub_39898 without a length check, overflowing stack buffer s. Low-privilege access to the network-reachable /goform/setcfm endpoint is required, and successful exploitation can execute code or crash the router.
