Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation targets the Wi-Fi auto-add onboarding flow handled by CAutoAddWifi::ThreadProc in the Kylin component; the attacker must be able to reach the network service that invokes this function on a Tenda CP3 running firmware 27.5.57.101. Per CVSS (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) no authentication or user interaction is required and complexity is low, so exploitation is remote and unauthenticated against affected devices. The primary limiting factor is network reachability: the camera's affected service must be accessible to the attacker (e.g. same LAN, or internet-exposed via port-forwarding/cloud bridge), so devices confined to a trusted internal network are substantially harder to reach.

Impact

The provided CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H) scores 10.0, describing unauthenticated network command execution with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact - a genuinely severe profile for a network-exposed camera, and operators should treat exposed CP3 devices as urgent. That said, several signals temper the raw score: this is a VulDB-sourced report with no independent NVD/vendor corroboration, no EPSS score was provided, it is not listed in CISA KEV, and no public proof-of-concept was supplied, so there is no evidence of active exploitation. The SC/SI/SA:H subsequent-system impact and the 10.0 rating assume the vulnerable process runs with high privilege and can pivot beyond itself, which is plausible for embedded firmware but not independently verified here. Realistic exposure also depends heavily on whether the camera's management interface is reachable from untrusted networks (many are LAN-only or behind NAT unless port-forwarded or cloud-bridged); internet-facing units are at highest risk while purely internal deployments face a lower, though still meaningful, threat.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who can reach the camera's network service sends a crafted request that feeds shell metacharacters into the Wi-Fi auto-add routine; because CAutoAddWifi::ThreadProc passes the value to an OS command unsanitized, the attacker's commands run on the device. This grants full control - enabling live-feed interception, use of the camera as a foothold into the LAN, or enrollment into a botnet. No public PoC is currently available, but the code location is specifically named, lowering the bar for exploit development.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 06, 2026

OS command injection in the Tenda CP3 IP camera (firmware 27.5.57.101) lets remote attackers execute arbitrary shell commands via the CAutoAddWifi::ThreadProc function of the Kylin component's AutoAddWifi.cpp. The flaw is reachable without authentication over the network and yields full device compromise. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the report originates from a single source (VulDB).

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; monitor https://www.tenda.com.cn/ and the VulDB record (https://vuldb.com/vuln/399275) for a fixed firmware release and apply it once available. In the interim, apply specific compensating controls: remove the CP3 from any internet-facing exposure by deleting port-forwarding/UPnP rules and blocking inbound access to its management/onboarding services at the perimeter firewall (trade-off: loses remote/cloud viewing); place cameras on an isolated VLAN with egress and inter-VLAN restrictions so a compromised device cannot pivot (trade-off: added network administration); restrict access to the Wi-Fi auto-add/onboarding functionality to a trusted provisioning network and disable it after setup if the firmware allows (trade-off: manual re-provisioning). Given the embedded target, also consider disabling cloud/remote-access features that expose the device beyond the LAN.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The Tenda CP3 is a consumer/SOHO network surveillance camera. The affected code path, CAutoAddWifi::ThreadProc in Functions/AutoAddWifi.cpp, is part of the 'Kylin' component that handles automatic Wi-Fi provisioning/onboarding of the camera. The C++ symbol name and CWE-78 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command) indicate that attacker-influenced input is passed into a shell/system-style call without sanitization, so metacharacters (e.g. ; | ` $()) break out of the intended command. The single CPE, cpe:2.3:a:tenda:cp3:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, confirms the affected product is the Tenda CP3 across the specified firmware.

DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in Tenda CP3 27.5.57.101. The impacted element is the function CAutoAddWifi::ThreadProc of the file Functions/AutoAddWifi.cpp of the component Kylin. Executing a manipulation can lead to os command injection. The attack may be launched remotely.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Tenda CP3 IP cameras (firmware 27.5.57.101) contain an unauthenticated OS command injection vulnerability (CVSS 10.0) that allows remote attackers to gain complete device control without credentials. Organizations using these cameras for facility monitoring face direct risk to physical security infrastructure, with compromised devices potentially used to disable surveillance, redirect feeds, or establish footholds for network lateral movement. No vendor patch is currently available, making immediate network isolation the critical priority.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

Implement network-level isolation using firewall rules and VLAN segmentation to restrict camera access exclusively to essential administrative networks and block all internet connectivity. Disable all remote management protocols and non-essential network services on affected devices. Deploy network monitoring and alerting to flag anomalous outbound traffic patterns from camera IP addresses. Restrict administrative access via strict access control lists (ACLs) limiting connections only to trusted administrative systems. Conduct daily audits of camera system logs and network flows to detect unauthorized access attempts, credential usage anomalies, or lateral movement indicators.
