A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the Wireless Configuration Endpoint of the Tenda HG9 router. The vulnerability is triggered by manipulating the ssid argument sent to /boaform/formWlanSetup, causing the stack to be corrupted. The flaw can be exploited to execute arbitrary code or crash the device, thereby compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Affected Systems
Tenda HG9 routers with firmware 300001138 are affected. No other vendors or product versions are listed.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score is 8.7, indicating high severity, while the EPSS score is below 1% and the vulnerability is not in the CISA KEV catalog. The attack vector is remote and the exploit is publicly available, so an attacker can target the device over the local network or through remote wireless access. Due to the low EPSS but high severity, the risk is moderate to high for exposed environments.
