Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Tenda CH22 router, specifically within the 'formCertListInfo' function located in the '/goform/CertListInfo' file. The vulnerability is triggered by improper validation of the 'Name' argument, allowing an attacker to overwrite memory. This attack can be launched remotely by an authenticated user (PR:L). Successful exploitation can lead to arbitrary code execution or a complete denial of service (DoS) of the device. Public exploit code is reportedly available, increasing the risk of exploitation.
