Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the 'formPortalAuth' function of the Tenda G0 v15.11.0.5 firmware. The vulnerability is located in the handling of the 'gotoUrl' HTTP parameter, which is retrieved via 'websGetVar' and subsequently passed to 'strcpy' without proper bounds checking into a fixed-size stack buffer (acStack_210). An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted HTTP request with an excessively long string in the 'gotoUrl' parameter. Successful exploitation leads to a crash of the web service or device instability, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
