Technical details
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the 'httpd' binary of Tenda TX9/TX9 Pro firmware. The flaw is located in the 'sub_4335DC' function (called by 'sub_4337EC' or 'sub_4418CC' depending on firmware version) when processing the 'list' parameter via a POST request to the '/goform/SetNetControlList' endpoint. The application uses 'strcpy' to copy the user-controlled 'list' input into a fixed-size stack buffer without length validation. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending a large payload to overwrite the return address, leading to a denial of service (system crash) or arbitrary code execution with root privileges.
