Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Tenda W12 router, specifically within the 'cgiSysTimeInfoSet' function of the '/bin/httpd' binary. The flaw is triggered by improper validation of the 'sec' argument, allowing an attacker to overwrite the stack. This attack can be initiated remotely over the network, though it requires low-level authentication (PR:L). Successful exploitation can lead to arbitrary code execution or a complete system crash (DoS). Public exploit code has been disclosed, increasing the risk of active exploitation.
