MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Tenda F451 firmware version 1.0.0.7_cn_svn7958. Attacker requires authenticated access to the web interface. Exploit targets the /goform/SetIpBind endpoint by manipulating the 'page' parameter to trigger stack-based buffer overflow. Remote exploitation possible. |
| Impact | Real-world risk is elevated due to convergence of multiple attack facilitators. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L) indicates network-accessible exploitation with low complexity requiring only low-privilege authentication - commonly achievable through default credentials widely documented for Tenda devices or credential stuffing attacks. The E:P (Proof-of-Concept) modifier confirms publicly available exploit code exists on GitHub, transforming this from theoretical to immediately weaponizable. However, the PR:L requirement (authenticated access needed) provides modest friction compared to unauthenticated remote code execution. No CISA KEV listing indicates this is not confirmed as actively exploited in widespread campaigns at time of analysis, though the public POC availability means adoption by opportunistic attackers targeting exposed router management interfaces is probable. EPSS data not provided, but typical characteristics (IoT device, public exploit, high CVSS) would normally correlate with moderate-to-high exploitation probability. The complete CIA triad impact (C:H/I:H/A:H) means successful exploitation grants full device compromise, enabling pivoting into internal networks, traffic interception, or botnet recruitment. Priority assessment: High for organizations with Tenda F451 devices exposed to untrusted networks; Medium-High for properly segmented management interfaces; attack automation is feasible given low complexity. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An external attacker performs network reconnaissance identifying a Tenda F451 router with web management accessible on the internet, leveraging search engines like Shodan or direct scanning. Using credential guessing against common Tenda defaults (admin/admin) or previously compromised credentials, the attacker authenticates to the administrative interface. They craft a malicious HTTP request to /goform/SetIpBind containing an oversized 'page' parameter payload (buffer exceeding stack allocation), triggering the stack overflow in fromSetIpBind function. The carefully constructed payload overwrites the return address with attacker-controlled values, redirecting execution to injected shellcode that establishes a reverse shell with root privileges, granting complete router compromise for network pivoting or malicious traffic manipulation. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 12, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in Tenda F451 router firmware version 1.0.0.7_cn_svn7958 allows authenticated remote attackers to achieve arbitrary code execution with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability resides in the fromSetIpBind function accessible via /goform/SetIpBind endpoint, where manipulation of the 'page' parameter triggers memory corruption. Publicly available exploit code exists (GitHub POC published), significantly lowering the barrier to exploitation despite requiring low-privilege authentication. CVSS 8.8 severity reflects network accessibility, low attack complexity, and complete system compromise potential.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Tenda's official website (https://www.tenda.com.cn/) should be monitored for firmware updates addressing this vulnerability, though Tenda's historical patch release cadence for end-of-life or budget router models is inconsistent. Immediate compensating controls include: disable remote management access to the web interface and restrict administrative access to trusted IP addresses only via access control lists or firewall rules; change default administrative credentials to strong unique passwords to raise the authentication barrier; deploy network segmentation isolating IoT devices from critical assets; implement intrusion detection signatures monitoring for exploitation attempts targeting /goform/SetIpBind with oversized 'page' parameters. For risk-intolerant environments, device replacement with actively supported router models from vendors with established vulnerability disclosure and patching programs represents the most definitive remediation. Organizations should assess whether Tenda F451 devices meet security requirements for continued production use given the absence of confirmed patch availability and the device's position in network architecture.

Technical ContextAI · show details
This vulnerability affects the web management interface of Tenda F451 wireless routers, specifically within the IP-MAC binding configuration functionality. The fromSetIpBind function in the /goform/SetIpBind endpoint fails to properly validate the length of the 'page' parameter before copying it to a fixed-size stack buffer. CWE-121 (stack-based buffer overflow) represents a critical memory safety flaw where unbounded data writes to automatic variables can overwrite adjacent memory regions including return addresses and saved frame pointers. In embedded router firmware like Tenda's implementation, these vulnerabilities frequently occur in CGI-style web handlers that process user-supplied parameters without adequate bounds checking. The affected CPE (cpe:2.3:a:tenda:f451) identifies this as a firmware vulnerability in the F451 router product line, where successful exploitation can lead to control-flow hijacking and arbitrary code execution in the context of the web server process, typically running with elevated system privileges on IoT devices.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A weakness has been identified in Tenda F451 1.0.0.7_cn_svn7958. This issue affects the function fromSetIpBind of the file /goform/SetIpBind. Executing a manipulation of the argument page can lead to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks.
Executive ViewAI
Tenda F451 routers running firmware 1.0.0.7_cn_svn7958 are vulnerable to authenticated remote code execution via a stack buffer overflow, allowing attackers to gain complete control of the device. This affects all organizations using this router model, with publicly available exploit code significantly increasing attack probability. Immediate firmware assessment and access control measures are required to prevent network compromise.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Restrict administrative access to router management interfaces using firewall rules or network ACLs; (2) Disable remote management features if not required for operations; (3) Implement network segmentation to limit lateral movement if device is compromised; (4) Monitor router logs and network traffic for exploitation attempts targeting /goform/SetIpBind endpoint; (5) Maintain current backups of network configuration separate from the router.
