Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
Shenzhen Tenda Technology Co., Ltd Tenda W15E v15.11.0.10 was discovered to contain a buffer overflow in the webAuthUserPwd parameter of the formAddWebAuthUser function. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted HTTP request.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in Tenda W15E router firmware v15.11.0.10 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to crash the device by sending a crafted HTTP request that triggers a buffer overflow in the webAuthUserPwd parameter of the formAddWebAuthUser handler. CVSS 7.5 reflects the network-reachable, no-auth attack path with high availability impact but no confidentiality or integrity loss, and EPSS is very low (0.01%) with no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
The Tenda W15E is a SMB/enterprise wireless access router whose web administration interface exposes the formAddWebAuthUser endpoint, used to add web-authentication users for captive-portal style access control. The flaw is a classic CWE-120 unbounded buffer copy: input supplied through the webAuthUserPwd parameter is written into a fixed-size stack/heap buffer without length validation, corrupting adjacent memory and causing the httpd/web server process on the device to crash. The CPE provided by the source is the placeholder 'cpe:2.3:a:n/a:n/a:*' rather than an authoritative Tenda CPE, so the affected scope must be derived from the description text (W15E firmware v15.11.0.10).
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; Tenda has not published an advisory in the supplied references. As compensating controls, restrict access to the W15E web management interface to trusted LAN segments only by disabling remote/WAN management in the device settings (trade-off: administrators lose remote configuration capability and must be on-LAN or VPN'd in), place the device behind an ACL or firewall rule that blocks inbound HTTP/HTTPS to its admin port from untrusted networks, and monitor for repeated POST requests to /goform/formAddWebAuthUser as a crash precursor. Operators should also subscribe to Tenda security bulletins and plan a firmware upgrade as soon as a fixed build is released; in higher-risk deployments, consider replacing the device with a model under active security support. See the research reference at https://github.com/xhh0124/SemVulLLM/tree/main/W15E/formAddWebAuthUser for trigger details useful in building detection signatures.
