What is CVE-2020-15916?

The Tenda AC15 AC1900 devices contain a vulnerability that allows attackers to remotely execute arbitrary system commands via manipulated input in the lanIp parameter. This issue arises from insufficient input validation in the goform/AdvSetLanip endpoint, permitting attackers to exploit shell metacharacters to gain unauthorized access and execute commands with elevated privileges.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
