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 | Requires authenticated access to Tenda FH451 firmware version 1.0.0.9. Attacker must send crafted input to the /goform/WrlExtraSet endpoint with a malicious GO parameter to trigger stack-based buffer overflow in formWrlExtraSet function. |
| Impact | This vulnerability presents a high real-world risk despite requiring low-privilege authentication (PR:L). The CVSS score of 8.8 reflects the network-based attack vector (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), and high impact across all CIA triad elements. The existence of a publicly available exploit (E:P) on GitHub significantly elevates the risk, as it enables even unsophisticated attackers to weaponize this vulnerability. The lack of vendor response or remediation level information (RL:X) suggests no official patch may be available, leaving affected devices vulnerable indefinitely. While authentication is required, many consumer routers retain default credentials or use weak passwords, effectively lowering this barrier. The combination of public exploit code, network accessibility, high impact, and apparent lack of vendor patching makes this a genuine priority for organizations using affected Tenda devices, particularly those exposed to untrusted networks or with compromised credentials. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who has obtained valid credentials for the Tenda FH451 router (either through password reuse, default credentials, or prior compromise) connects to the device over the network and sends a specially crafted HTTP request to the /goform/WrlExtraSet endpoint with a maliciously oversized 'GO' parameter value. This triggers the stack-based buffer overflow in the formWrlExtraSet function, allowing the attacker to overwrite the stack and redirect program execution to injected shellcode. With the publicly available proof-of-concept from GitHub (https://github.com/Litengzheng/vul_db/blob/main/FH451/vul_41/README.md), the attacker can achieve complete router compromise, potentially using it as a persistent foothold for lateral movement, traffic interception, or botnet recruitment. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 22, 2026
Stack overflow in Tenda FH451 firmware version 1.0.0.9 allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through improper input validation in the WrlExtraSet function. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, and no patch is currently available. The flaw requires network access and valid credentials but can completely compromise the affected device's confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the formWrlExtraSet function of the /goform/WrlExtraSet endpoint in Tenda FH451 routers running firmware version 1.0.0.9. An authenticated attacker can remotely exploit this vulnerability by manipulating the 'GO' parameter to achieve arbitrary code execution with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. A proof-of-concept exploit has been publicly disclosed on GitHub, significantly lowering the barrier to exploitation.
RemediationAI
No official patch or firmware update from Tenda has been identified in the available references for this vulnerability. Users of Tenda FH451 firmware version 1.0.0.9 should immediately check the vendor website at https://www.tenda.com.cn/ for any firmware updates beyond version 1.0.0.9 and apply them if available. As interim mitigations until patching is possible, restrict administrative access to the router to trusted IP addresses only, change default credentials to strong unique passwords, disable remote management interfaces if not required, and place affected devices behind additional network security controls such as firewalls that can filter access to the /goform/ endpoints. Organizations should consider replacing these devices with alternative models if vendor support and patching proves unavailable, given the public availability of exploit code.

Technical ContextAI · show details
This vulnerability affects the Tenda FH451 wireless router (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:tenda:fh451:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), specifically firmware version 1.0.0.9. The root cause is classified as CWE-121 (Stack-based Buffer Overflow), occurring in the formWrlExtraSet function which handles wireless extra settings through the /goform/WrlExtraSet endpoint. When processing the 'GO' parameter, insufficient bounds checking allows an attacker to write beyond the allocated buffer on the stack, potentially overwriting return addresses or other critical memory structures. This class of vulnerability is particularly dangerous in embedded devices like routers where memory protections may be limited or absent, and successful exploitation can lead to complete device compromise.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in Tenda FH451 1.0.0.9. This affects the function formWrlExtraSet of the file /goform/WrlExtraSet. This manipulation of the argument GO causes stack-based buffer overflow. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used.
Executive ViewAI
Tenda FH451 routers running firmware 1.0.0.9 contain a critical remote code execution vulnerability that attackers can exploit with publicly available tools, potentially giving them complete control over affected network infrastructure. Any organization using these routers faces immediate risk of network compromise, data theft, and service disruption without vendor remediation available.
Implement WAF rules to block POST requests to /goform/WrlExtraSet endpoint; restrict network access to affected routers via firewall segmentation; disable remote management and WAN access to administrative interfaces; monitor for suspicious authentication attempts and unusual outbound connections; consider air-gapping critical infrastructure from affected routers; deploy network intrusion detection signatures for CVE-2026-4534 exploitation patterns.

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
A stack-based buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a buffer located on the stack than it was allocated to hold.
