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 · unedited
Shenzhen Tenda Technology Co., Ltd Tenda W15E v15.11.0.10 was discovered to contain a buffer overflow in the picName parameter of the formDelwebAuthPic function. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted HTTP request.

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 · moderate confidence

Buffer overflow vulnerability in Tenda W15E router firmware v15.11.0.10 in the formDelwebAuthPic function where the picName parameter lacks proper bounds checking, allowing a crafted HTTP request to overflow the buffer and cause denial of service.

MitigationApply vendor firmware patch when available; until then, restrict administrative web interface access to trusted networks only or deploy WAF rules to filter abnormally long picName parameter values.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify the device model
    Access the router web management interface or check the device label to confirm it is a Tenda W15E router
    Affected if The device is a Tenda W15E model
  2. Check the firmware version
    Log into the router web interface and navigate to System Settings > Firmware Upgrade, or use the CLI command 'cat /proc/version' if telnet/ssh access is available, to determine the installed firmware version
    Affected if The firmware version is v15.11.0.10 exactly
  3. Verify web management interface is accessible
    Attempt to access the router login page at http://<router-ip> on ports 80 or 443 to confirm the web management interface is reachable
    Affected if The web management interface responds to HTTP requests on the network

The environment is affected if it is a Tenda W15E router running firmware v15.11.0.10 with the web management interface exposed on the network.
