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 security flaw has been discovered in Tenda AC6 15.03.06.49_multi_TDE01. Affected is the function fromSetWirelessRepeat of the file /goform/WifiExtraSet of the component httpd. Performing a manipulation of the argument mac/ssid results in os command injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks.

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

The Tenda AC6 router firmware 15.03.06.49 contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the httpd web server's /goform/WifiExtraSet endpoint. The fromSetWirelessRepeat function fails to sanitize the mac and ssid arguments before passing them to system shell commands, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands via crafted HTTP requests.

MitigationUpdate router firmware to a patched version if available; if no patch exists, replace the device or implement network segmentation/firewall rules to restrict access to the router's management interface from untrusted networks.

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 Tenda router model
    Log into the router web interface or check the device label to confirm the model is AC6 or AC10u
    Affected if Model is Tenda AC6 or AC10u
  2. Check the installed firmware version
    Navigate to the router's web administration page, look for a System or Firmware Status section, and record the firmware version number
    Affected if Firmware version is 15.03.06.49 or falls within the 15.03.06.x series
  3. Verify the httpd web server is accessible
    Attempt to access the router's web interface on the standard HTTP port (typically 80) from an internal network host
    Affected if The httpd service is running and responding to HTTP requests on the LAN or WAN interface
  4. Confirm the WifiExtraSet endpoint exists
    Send an HTTP POST request to http://[router-ip]/goform/WifiExtraSet or access this URL through the browser to see if the endpoint is present
    Affected if The /goform/WifiExtraSet endpoint is available and responds to requests
  5. Check if wireless repeat/repeater mode is configured
    In the router's web interface, navigate to the Wireless or Wi-Fi settings and look for Repeat, Repeater, or WDS configuration options
    Affected if Wireless repeat or repeater functionality is enabled or configurable on the device

A user is affected if they have a Tenda AC6 or AC10u router running firmware version 15.03.06.49 with the httpd web server accessible and the wireless repeat feature enabled, allowing command injection through the mac or ssid parameters in the WifiExtraSet function.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Update router firmware to a patched version if available; if no patch exists, replace the device or implement network segmentation/firewall rules to restrict access to the router's management interface from untrusted networks.
