CVE-2025-57086: Stack Overflow in Tenda W30E Leading to Denial of Service

Overview

The cybersecurity vulnerability CVE-2025-57086 is a critical bug found in Tenda W30E V16.01.0.19 (5037). This vulnerability is due to a stack overflow in the String parameter of the formDeleteMeshNode function. The impact of this vulnerability is severe, as it allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a carefully crafted request. This vulnerability poses a significant risk to any system running the affected version of Tenda W30E.

How the Exploit Works

The exploit takes advantage of a stack overflow vulnerability in the formDeleteMeshNode function of Tenda W30E. The attacker sends a specially crafted request including an overly long string parameter to this function. This causes a buffer overflow, corrupting the stack and making the system unstable, leading to a Denial of Service. Depending on the nature of the overflow, it could potentially allow the execution of arbitrary code or leakage of sensitive data.

Conceptual Example Code

Here’s a conceptual example of a malicious HTTP request that could exploit this vulnerability:

POST /formDeleteMeshNode HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "String": "A"*5000 }

In this example, the “String” field is filled with a sequence of 5000 “A” characters, exceeding the buffer size and triggering the stack overflow.
