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
A vulnerability was identified in Tenda F451 1.0.0.7_cn_svn7958. The affected element is the function fromSafeClientFilter of the file /goform/SafeClientFilter of the component httpd. The manipulation of the argument menufacturer/Go leads to buffer overflow. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit is publicly available and might be used.

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 confidence

Buffer overflow in Tenda F451 router httpd component. The fromSafeClientFilter function in /goform/SafeClientFilter fails to properly validate the 'menufacturer' (likely 'manufacturer') parameter length before copying it into a fixed-size buffer, allowing remote attackers to overflow the buffer and potentially achieve remote code execution.

MitigationUpdate Tenda F451 firmware to a patched version if available; otherwise, disable remote management interfaces or restrict access to the httpd service via firewall rules to prevent external exploitation.

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 device model
    Check the router label, web interface, or system info page to confirm the device is a Tenda F451 model
    Affected if Device is not a Tenda F451 router (different models may have different vulnerabilities)
  2. Check httpd service status
    Access the router's admin panel or use network scanning to confirm the httpd web service is running on the router
    Affected if httpd service is not running (the vulnerable component is not active)
  3. Determine firmware version
    In the router web interface, navigate to System Settings or Firmware Upgrade section to view the current firmware version; alternatively, check via telnet/SSH if available
    Affected if Firmware version is unpatched and falls within the vulnerable version range (compare against any available patch releases)
  4. Verify SafeClientFilter endpoint accessibility
    Attempt to access the /goform/SafeClientFilter endpoint locally or remotely to confirm it responds; check if the router's web interface exposes this form handler
    Affected if The SafeClientFilter endpoint is not accessible or does not exist on this device
  5. Confirm remote management exposure
    Check router firewall settings, WAN access controls, or port forwards to determine if the httpd service (port 80/443) is exposed to WAN/internet
    Affected if Remote management is disabled and httpd is only accessible from LAN (reduces but does not eliminate local network risk)

User is affected if they have a Tenda F451 router with httpd running, the SafeClientFilter endpoint accessible, and an unpatched firmware version, especially if remote management is enabled to WAN.
