What is CVE-2018-18732?

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified in the web server (httpd) of specific Tenda AC series routers. When processing the 'ntpServer' parameter in a POST request, the value is improperly handled using a strcpy function, which can lead to overwriting a local variable's return address on the stack, potentially allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code.
