Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Tenda F451 router firmware version 1.0.0.7. The flaw is located within the 'fromRouteStatic' function in the '/goform/RouteStatic' component. The vulnerability is triggered by improper validation of the 'page' argument, allowing a remote attacker with low privileges to overflow the stack. Successful exploitation can lead to remote code execution (RCE) or a denial of service (DoS) condition. Public exploit code is reportedly available, increasing the risk of exploitation.

Affected products
