|
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires an authenticated low-privilege session to the device's web Management Interface, then a crafted request to /goform/wizardset reaching the do_setWizard_asp function with a malicious WizardConfigured argument (CWE-74 command injection). Exploitation is network-based and needs no user interaction, but is limited by: the authentication requirement (CVSS PR:L - valid credentials or default/weak creds are needed), reachability of the management interface (sharply higher risk if WAN-side remote management is enabled, otherwise LAN-only), and the specific affected build TEW-800MB firmware 1.0.1.0. |
| Impact | This is a genuine but bounded risk. The provided CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) scores 7.4 (High) and describes a network-reachable, low-complexity command injection with full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact to the device, but critically requires PR:L - low-level authentication - so it is NOT an unauthenticated flaw. Publicly available exploit code exists (confirmed by the NVD 'exploit' reference to a Notion writeup), and the CVSS 4.0 exploit-maturity metric E:P (Proof-of-Concept) is consistent with that. However, there is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score was provided, so there is no evidence of active, widespread exploitation - the signals indicate a disclosed PoC against a specific consumer router model rather than mass exploitation. The authentication requirement (PR:L) is the single biggest risk-limiter and separates this from a critical wormable issue; the practical danger rises sharply if the device exposes its management interface to the internet or uses default/weak credentials. Net: a real priority for anyone running this exact device with remote management enabled, but lower urgency than the raw High score suggests for hardened deployments. Note the vendor was contacted but did not respond, so no official patch or advisory exists to corroborate affected-version boundaries beyond the NVD CPE. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with low-privilege credentials (or access to a device with default/weak credentials) reaches the web management interface over the network and sends a crafted request to /goform/wizardset, injecting OS commands via the WizardConfigured parameter handled by do_setWizard_asp. Because a public proof-of-concept exists, the injected commands execute on the router with device privileges, giving the attacker control over the appliance. Attack complexity is low (AC:L) and no user interaction is needed, but valid authentication (PR:L) is a prerequisite. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 06, 2026
Command injection in TRENDnet TEW-800MB firmware 1.0.1.0 allows an authenticated low-privilege attacker who can reach the web Management Interface to execute arbitrary operating-system commands through a crafted WizardConfigured parameter in a request to /goform/wizardset. Publicly available exploit code exists, and exploitation is bounded by the need for valid credentials and reachability of the management interface; no CISA KEV entry is provided in the available intelligence. The device is at sharply higher risk if WAN-side remote management is enabled, otherwise exposure is typically limited to the LAN.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, and TRENDnet did not respond to the disclosure, so users should treat this as a compensating-control scenario. Primary actions are to disable WAN-side remote management so the /goform/wizardset endpoint is not reachable from untrusted networks, restrict management access to a trusted administrative VLAN or VPN, and replace default or weak credentials with strong unique passwords; disabling remote management stops external exploitation but prevents legitimate remote administration, while VLAN/VPN restrictions may add operational friction for admins. Monitor or block POST requests to /goform/wizardset containing suspicious WizardConfigured values as a temporary detection measure, and plan to replace or retire the device if no vendor patch becomes available.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The TEW-800MB is a TRENDnet wireless router whose embedded firmware exposes a web-based management interface implemented with goform CGI handlers. The vulnerable endpoint /goform/wizardset maps to do_setWizard_asp, which processes the WizardConfigured argument; the code fails to neutralize shell metacharacters before passing the value to a system command, making this a command injection issue in the CWE-74 injection class. The only CPE supplied is cpe:2.3:o:trendnet:tew-800mb_firmware:1.0.1.0:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, so affected deployments are specifically build 1.0.1.0 of the TEW-800MB firmware. Because the handler is part of the management interface, an attacker must first obtain a low-privilege authenticated session, but no user interaction is needed once that session exists.

DescriptionCVE.org
A security vulnerability has been detected in TRENDnet TEW-800MB 1.0.1.0. Affected is the function do_setWizard_asp of the file /goform/wizardset of the component Management Interface. The manipulation of the argument WizardConfigured leads to command injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
Executive ViewAI
TRENDnet TEW-800MB devices running firmware 1.0.1.0 carry an unpatched high-severity command-injection flaw that can allow an attacker with valid management credentials to run operating-system commands on the device. Publicly available exploit code exists, and no vendor-released patch has been identified, so these routers can become a practical foothold for lateral movement or network disruption if they are reachable through WAN-side remote management or poorly segmented LANs. Leadership should prioritize inventory, exposure reduction, and replacement planning for any business-critical or internet-facing TEW-800MB deployments.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; disable WAN-side remote management, restrict Management Interface access to trusted administrative networks, enforce strong unique credentials, apply firewall/ACL rules to block untrusted reachability, monitor for /goform/wizardset exploitation attempts, and isolate or replace affected TRENDnet TEW-800MB firmware 1.0.1.0 devices where risk cannot be accepted.
