Technical details
A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the Tenda W20E router (firmware version 15.11.0.6) within the 'formSetPortMirror' function of the '/goform/setPortMirror' endpoint. The vulnerability is caused by the unsafe use of 'sprintf' when processing the user-supplied 'portMirrorMirroredPorts' parameter, which is copied into a fixed-size 256-byte stack buffer without adequate bounds checking. An authenticated attacker can provide a specially crafted string longer than 256 bytes to overwrite the saved Link Register (LR) on the stack. This can result in a service crash (DoS) or remote code execution (RCE). A public exploit (PoC) is available.
