Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121) exists in the Tenda HG7, HG9, and HG10 router firmware (version 300001138_en_xpon). The vulnerability is located in the 'formPPPEdit' function within the '/boaform/formPPPEdit' component. It is triggered by providing an overly long string to the 'encodename' parameter. While some reports suggest low privileges are required, others indicate it may be unauthenticated. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to crash the Boa web service (Denial of Service) or achieve arbitrary code execution with root privileges. A public exploit has been disclosed.
