Impact
A stack‑based buffer overflow exists in the formSetPPTPServer function of Tenda JD12L firmware 16.03.53.23, triggered by malicious input to the startIp parameter in the /goform/SetPptpServerCfg endpoint. The flaw, identified as CVE‑2026‑13515, can be exploited remotely and may lead to arbitrary code execution or full system compromise. The vulnerability is evaluated with a CVSS score of 8.7, indicating high severity, and is categorized under CWE‑119 (Buffer Overflow) and CWE‑121 (Stack-based Buffer Overflow).
Affected Systems
Tenda JD12L router, firmware version 16.03.53.23. All devices running this exact firmware are susceptible; newer releases are presumed patched unless confirmed otherwise.
Risk and Exploitability
The exploit is remotely accessible and has been publicly disclosed, indicating that attackers could target the vulnerable endpoint over the network. While EPSS is not available, the high CVSS score and lack of a KEV listing suggest a significant risk of exploitation. An attacker would need to send a specially crafted startIp value to trigger the overflow, allowing control over the execution flow of the router’s firmware.
