Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires valid high-level authentication credentials (administrator account) to access the /goform/getLogFile endpoint. The Tenda AC6 device must have its web management interface accessible over the network (default HTTP/HTTPS ports 80/443). No special firmware configuration or non-default settings are indicated as necessary. The vulnerability exists in the default functionality of the device. The limiting factor is the PR:H (high privilege) requirement - unauthenticated remote exploitation is not possible without first obtaining admin credentials.

Impact

The raw CVSS score of 4.7 with AV:N/AC:L/PR:H indicates moderate severity, but this score reflects the high-privilege authentication requirement. The CVSS vector explicitly marks PR:H, meaning exploitation requires authenticated access with high-level privileges (typically admin credentials). However, the AC:L and AV:N components show the exploit is trivial to execute and requires no user interaction once authenticated. The public availability of exploit code (POC=YES) elevates practical risk. EPSS data is not provided, limiting probabilistic assessment. The conflict between moderate CVSS (4.7) and public exploit availability suggests this is a legitimate concern for environments where admin credential compromise is possible, but not a critical threat vector for typical network-segmented router deployments. Real-world risk depends heavily on authentication model: if admin credentials are shared, weak, or obtainable via phishing, risk escalates significantly. If admin access is tightly controlled and uses strong credentials, risk remains contained to insider or credential-compromise scenarios.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated administrator account on the Tenda AC6 device is either compromised via credential theft, phishing, or weak password, or an insider with admin credentials sends a crafted HTTP request to /goform/getLogFile with a malicious wans.flag parameter containing shell metacharacters and commands (e.g., wans.flag=1;cat%20/etc/passwd). The httpd daemon executes the injected command with the privileges of the web server process, allowing the attacker to read sensitive files, modify configuration, or establish reverse shell access.

Monitor Track and reassess. Why: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9).

AnalysisAIv1 – May 11, 2026

Remote command injection in Tenda AC6 version 15.03.06.23 allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands via the wans.flag parameter in the /goform/getLogFile endpoint. The vulnerability has publicly available exploit code and may be actively exploited. Attack complexity is low, requiring only network access and high-level authentication privileges, with potential for confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity impacts.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Tenda AC6 firmware to a patched version released after version 15.03.06.23. Consult the Tenda official website (https://www.tenda.com.cn/) for the latest firmware release and security advisories for AC6. If a patched firmware version is not yet available, implement the following compensating controls: restrict administrative access to the router's web interface by limiting management access to trusted IP addresses only using firewall rules or built-in access control lists; disable remote management of the device if not required (disable WAN-side access to the HTTP management interface); enforce strong administrative passwords (minimum 16 characters, mixed case, numbers, and special characters) and rotate credentials regularly; monitor access logs to /goform/getLogFile for suspicious activity with wans.flag parameters; isolate the router on a separate management network with restricted access. Note: these controls do not eliminate the vulnerability but reduce attack surface and detection difficulty.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability exists in the httpd component's get_log_file function, which processes user-supplied input from the wans.flag parameter without proper sanitization. This is a classic OS command injection flaw (CWE-78) where attacker-controlled data is passed directly to shell command execution routines. The Tenda AC6 is a wireless router device running embedded Linux firmware with a web-based management interface. The /goform/getLogFile endpoint is part of the device's HTTP daemon and is accessible remotely, but requires high-level authentication (PR:H in CVSS vector) to exploit, suggesting admin or privileged user credentials are needed.
