CVE-2026-67822 is a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in Tenda W6-S firmware version 1.0.0.4(510). The flaw is present in the /goform/wifiSSIDset endpoint, specifically in the formwrlSSIDset function, which uses sprintf to copy attacker-controlled GO and index parameters into a 64-byte stack buffer without enforcing length checks. Because the copy operation does not constrain input size, a remote attacker can overflow the stack by supplying oversized parameter values. The vulnerability may result in process crash, device instability, or potentially arbitrary code execution on the affected router.

This repository is a small, focused exploit research package for CVE-2026-67822 affecting the Tenda W6-S wireless access point firmware v1.0.0.4(510). It contains 4 files total: one README, two Python scripts, and one C source file. The main exploit capability is a confirmed remote denial-of-service against the web management service by sending an oversized GO parameter to POST /goform/wifiSSIDset, which reaches an unsafe sprintf() in formwrlSSIDset() and overflows a 64-byte stack buffer. The poc_dos.py script is the operational PoC: it probes the target over HTTP, sends the oversized POST body with GO, wl_radio, and index parameters, then re-probes to confirm that /bin/httpd has crashed. The exploit_conceptual.py script is not a full weaponized RCE exploit, but it is clearly exploit code: it generates cyclic patterns to empirically determine the offset to saved $ra on MIPS big-endian builds and can construct a payload that overwrites saved $ra with a chosen address. It intentionally omits shellcode, gadget addresses, and a complete post-hijack execution chain, so it is best characterized as conceptual/operational research support rather than a turnkey RCE. The fake_apmib.c file is auxiliary infrastructure, not the exploit itself: it is an LD_PRELOAD shim that fakes Tenda-specific initialization and configuration dependencies such as apmib_init(), ConnectCfm(), GetValue("lan.ip"), ioctl(SIOCGIFHWADDR), and connect(), allowing the vendor /bin/httpd binary to run inside a QEMU MIPS guest without physical hardware. This makes the repository useful both for reproducing the crash and for controlled emulation-based vulnerability research. Overall, the repository is a legitimate exploit PoC set with a working DoS reproducer, a conceptual control-flow-hijack skeleton for further research, and emulation support tooling.
