CVE-2026-10122
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability has been found in TRENDnet TEW-432BRP 3.10B20. This affects the function formSetProtocolFilter of the file /goform/formSetProtocolFilter. Such manipulation of the argument protocol_name leads to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor explains: "This product has been EOL for 15 years (since 2009). As the item has been EOL for such a long time, we are not able to replicate or fix any vulnerabilities." This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceStack-based buffer overflow in TRENDnet TEW-432BRP router's formSetProtocolFilter function allows remote attackers to overflow the protocol_name argument, potentially executing arbitrary code. The vulnerability is exploitable over the network with low attack complexity and no authentication required, resulting in HIGH (8.8) CVSS score.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the device modelAccess the router's web administration interface and check the status page or system info section for the exact model number (TEW-432BRP). Alternatively, check the device label or packaging.Affected if The device is a TRENDnet TEW-432BRP router
-
Verify the web management interface is accessibleAttempt to access the router's web interface at its default IP address (typically 192.168.10.1) via HTTP. Confirm the interface loads and accepts authentication.Affected if The web interface is exposed and reachable on the network
-
Confirm the Protocol Filter feature existsNavigate through the router's web interface to locate the Protocol Filter or similar firewall/filtering settings. This is where the vulnerable formSetProtocolFilter function would be invoked.Affected if A Protocol Filter or firewall rule configuration feature is present and accessible
-
Check for firmware version informationIn the router's web interface, look for a System or Administration section that displays the firmware version. Compare this against any known version numbers for the TEW-432BRP.Affected if The firmware version cannot be determined or falls within an unpatched release range
The device is affected if it is a TRENDnet TEW-432BRP router with an accessible web management interface where the Protocol Filter feature can be accessed, as the buffer overflow resides in the formSetProtocolFilter function handling that feature.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedSince the device is End-of-Life (EOL since 2009) with no vendor support, replace the affected router with a currently supported model. If replacement is not immediately feasible, isolate the device on a restricted network segment to limit exposure.
- This is a legacy EOL device (since 2009) with no vendor support or patches available.
- Replace the affected TRENDnet TEW-432BRP with a currently supported router from the vendor or an alternative manufacturer.
- If immediate replacement is not possible, implement network segmentation to isolate the affected device on a restricted VLAN with minimal network permissions.
- Disable remote administration interfaces if not strictly necessary, limiting attack surface to local network access only.
- Monitor the network for any suspicious traffic patterns targeting the device.
