## Technical details

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the Tenda AC10 router firmware version 16.03.10.10_multi_TDE01. The flaw is located within the 'formAddMacfilterRule' function (and approximately 20 other functions) in the '/bin/httpd' binary. The root cause is the improper neutralization of user-supplied input from 'websGetVar()' before it is passed to 'doSystemCmd()', which executes shell commands. An authenticated attacker can exploit this over the network by sending crafted requests to the affected endpoints. Successful exploitation results in arbitrary command execution with root-level privileges. No official patch is currently detailed in the advisory, though remediation suggests sanitizing shell metacharacters and using allowlist validation.
