Shenzhen Tenda Technology Co., Ltd Tenda W15E v15.11.0.10 was discovered to contain a buffer overflow in the picName parameter of the formDelwebAuthPic 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 with an oversized picName parameter to the formDelwebAuthPic handler. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS rates real-world exploitation probability at just 0.02% (4th percentile), but the affected SOHO/SMB router class is a frequent target once weaponized PoCs emerge.
Technical ContextAI
The Tenda W15E is an enterprise-grade wireless access controller/router. The vulnerable formDelwebAuthPic function is part of the device's web-based management interface (httpd/goahead-style embedded web server commonly used in Tenda firmware) and handles deletion of web authentication pictures. The root cause is CWE-120 (Classic Buffer Overflow / Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input): the picName HTTP parameter is copied into a fixed-size stack or heap buffer without bounds validation, corrupting adjacent memory and causing the httpd process to crash. The supplied CPE string (cpe:2.3:a:n/a:n/a:*) is a malformed placeholder rather than a proper vendor/product CPE, so authoritative product matching must rely on the description.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; Tenda has not published an advisory in the supplied references. Until a fixed firmware build is released, restrict access to the W15E web management interface (typically TCP/80 and TCP/443) to a dedicated management VLAN or trusted admin workstations using ACLs on upstream switches/firewalls, and ensure the WAN-side management interface is disabled (side effect: remote admin via WAN will no longer function, requiring on-site or VPN access). Monitor the Tenda support site (https://www.tendacn.com) for a firmware update superseding 15.11.0.10 and apply it once available; if the device is end-of-life, plan replacement, since unpatched embedded HTTP services are routinely chained into botnets. The single reference https://github.com/xhh0124/SemVulLLM/tree/main/W15E/formDelwebAuthPic documents the bug location but is not a vendor remediation source.
