Tenda W30E Stack Overflow Vulnerability in formDeleteMeshNode Function Allowing Denial-of-Service

Vulnerability

A stack overflow vulnerability has been identified in the Tenda W30E router, specifically in version 16.01.0.19 (5037). The issue arises in the formDeleteMeshNode function, where user-provided String parameters are not properly validated before being processed. This flaw enables remote attackers to craft requests that overflow the stack buffer, leading to a denial-of-service condition or potentially allowing remote code execution.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability causes a denial-of-service condition, with the potential for remote code execution.

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending an HTTP POST request to the '/goform/deleteMesh' endpoint with a crafted 'mac' parameter that is excessively long, such as 1000 characters. This can be done using a Python script that utilizes the 'requests' library to automate the process.
