KEV Icon
CWE ID Description
CWE-121 A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function).
CWE-119 The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.

Executive Summary

This is a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the Tenda W20E router firmware. It occurs in the lstAdd function of the /goform/editQos component when processing the qosListConnecttedNum parameter. The issue arises because the code uses sprintf to copy user-controlled input into a fixed-size buffer without proper length checks, allowing attackers to overflow the stack.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, monitor network traffic for unusually long values in the qosListConnecttedNum parameter sent to the /goform/editQos endpoint on Tenda W20E devices. Use packet inspection tools like Wireshark to filter HTTP POST requests to this path and check for payloads exceeding typical lengths.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code remotely or cause a denial of service. This might allow unauthorized access to the router, network traffic interception, or disruption of network services. The exploit is publicly available, increasing the risk of attacks.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the Tenda W20E firmware to the latest patched version if available. If no patch exists, restrict access to the device's web interface from untrusted networks and disable remote administration. Monitor for suspicious activity and consider isolating the device until a fix is applied.
