Integrity: None
Availability: High

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Adjacent: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack, but the attack is limited at the protocol level to a logically adjacent topology. This can mean an attack must be launched from the same shared physical (e.g., Bluetooth or IEEE 802.11) or logical (e.g., local IP subnet) network, or from within a secure or otherwise limited administrative domain (e.g., MPLS, secure VPN to an administrative network zone).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the impacted component.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: High: There is total loss of availability, resulting in the attacker being able to fully deny access to resources in the impacted component; this loss is either sustained (while the attacker continues to deliver the attack) or persistent (the condition persists even after the attack has completed). Alternatively, the attacker has the ability to deny some availability, but the loss of availability presents a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component (e.g., the attacker cannot disrupt existing connections, but can prevent new connections; the attacker can repeatedly exploit a vulnerability that, in each instance of a successful attack, leaks a only small amount of memory, but after repeated exploitation causes a service to become completely unavailable).

Exploitation evidence

Detectable: no evidence on record.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

AI-suggested

European organizations should immediately audit their network infrastructure to identify the presence of Tenda AC10V4.0 routers running firmware version 16.03.10.20. If identified, restrict access to the router's management interface by implementing network segmentation and firewall rules to limit access to trusted internal IPs only. Disable remote management over WAN if enabled. Monitor network traffic for suspicious POST requests targeting the /goform/AdvSetMacMtuWan endpoint, especially those containing unusual or oversized serverName fields. Until an official patch is released, consider replacing vulnerable devices with updated models or alternative vendors with active security support. Employ network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) with custom signatures to detect exploitation attempts. Maintain up-to-date backups of router configurations to enable rapid recovery in case of device failure. Engage with Tenda support channels to obtain firmware updates or security advisories. Educate IT staff on the specific risks and signs of exploitation related to this vulnerability to enhance incident response readiness.

Description

A Buffer overflow vulnerability in function fromAdvSetMacMtuWan of bin httpd in Tenda AC10V4.0 V16.03.10.20 allows remote attackers to cause denial of service and possibly code execution by sending a post request with a crafted payload (field `serverName`) to /goform/AdvSetMacMtuWan.

Impact

For European organizations, the primary impact of CVE-2025-67074 is the potential denial of service on affected Tenda AC10V4.0 routers, which could disrupt internet connectivity or internal network operations. In environments where these routers serve as gateways or critical network infrastructure, this could lead to operational downtime and productivity loss. Although the vulnerability currently has no confirmed exploits in the wild, the possibility of remote code execution elevates the risk, as attackers could gain persistent access to the network or pivot to other internal systems. Organizations relying on these devices for remote or branch office connectivity may face increased exposure, especially if the router's management interface is accessible from untrusted networks. The lack of confidentiality or integrity impact reduces the risk of data breaches directly from this vulnerability, but service disruption and potential device compromise remain significant concerns. European entities with limited IT support or delayed patching processes may be particularly vulnerable to exploitation once public exploits emerge.
