CVE-2026-16096 is a remotely exploitable stack-based buffer overflow in Shibby Tomato 1.28 RT-N5x MIPSR2 Build 124. The flaw affects function sub_40BB50 associated with the /proc/webmon_recent_domains component. Improper handling of attacker-controlled input can cause data to be written beyond the bounds of a stack buffer, corrupting stack memory and destabilizing control flow. Depending on memory layout and exploit reliability on the target platform, successful exploitation may result in process or device crash and may also permit arbitrary code execution. The affected Shibby Tomato project is superseded by FreshTomato.
