Technical details

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Tenda AC9 router firmware version 15.03.02.13. The flaw is located within the 'formQuickIndex' function in the '/goform/QuickIndex' file, which serves as a POST request handler. An attacker can trigger the overflow by providing a specially crafted, overly long string to the 'PPPOEPassword' argument. While the attack requires low-level authentication (PR:L), it can be executed remotely over the network. Successful exploitation could allow for remote code execution (RCE) or a denial of service (DoS) condition. Public exploit code has been disclosed.
