HIGH 7.4

DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in Tenda AC5 15.03.06.47. This vulnerability affects the function formQuickIndex of the file /goform/QuickIndex of the component POST Request Handler. This manipulation of the argument PPPOEPassword causes stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used.

AnalysisAI

Remote attackers with low-level credentials can execute arbitrary code on Tenda AC5 wireless routers running firmware version 15.03.06.47 by exploiting a stack-based buffer overflow in the formQuickIndex function via a crafted PPPOEPassword parameter in POST requests to /goform/QuickIndex. Publicly available exploit code exists, including detailed proof-of-concept documentation published on Notion, elevating immediate risk for devices exposed to authenticated network users. The CVSS score of 8.8 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability with network-based attack vector and low complexity.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in the formQuickIndex function within the POST request handler at the /goform/QuickIndex endpoint of Tenda AC5 router firmware 15.03.06.47 (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:tenda:ac5:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The root cause is CWE-121, a stack-based buffer overflow occurring when the application fails to validate the length of the PPPOEPassword argument before copying it to a fixed-size stack buffer. This classic memory corruption vulnerability allows attackers to overwrite adjacent memory regions, including the function return address, enabling control of program execution flow. The /goform/ path typically handles router configuration and management functions, where sensitive operations like PPPoE authentication credential management are processed.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis based on available reference data. Until Tenda releases updated firmware, implement defense-in-depth controls: disable remote management interfaces and restrict administrative access to trusted internal network segments only, change all default credentials to strong unique passwords immediately, implement network segmentation to isolate IoT devices from critical assets, monitor for suspicious POST requests to /goform/QuickIndex endpoints via intrusion detection systems, and consider replacing affected devices with alternative router models if Tenda does not provide timely security updates. Organizations should monitor the vendor security portal at https://www.tenda.com.cn/ and VulDB entry https://vuldb.com/?id.353654 for future patch availability announcements.
