CVE-2026-10179: Stack-based Buffer Overflow in TRENDnet TEW-432BRP
A flaw has been found in TRENDnet TEW-432BRP 3.10B20. This issue affects the function formSetWlanEncrypt of the file /goform/formSetWlanEncrypt. This manipulation of the argument webpage causes stack-based buffer overflow. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been published 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-10179 is a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in TRENDnet TEW-432BRP firmware version 3.10B20. The issue arises in the formSetWlanEncrypt function within the /goform/formSetWlanEncrypt endpoint, where improper handling of the webpage argument allows remote attackers to overflow the stack. This vulnerability enables potential remote code execution. The affected product is no longer supported, having been EOL since 2009, and the vendor has explicitly stated they will not address this vulnerability. No official patch or remediation exists, and the vulnerability is publicly disclosed with a high CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to remote code execution on the affected device, compromising its integrity and potentially allowing an attacker to control the device. Given the device is EOL and unsupported, affected systems remain vulnerable indefinitely unless replaced or isolated. No known active exploitation in the wild has been reported at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official fix or patch is available due to the product's end-of-life status and vendor's inability to replicate or remediate the issue. Mitigation options are limited to discontinuing use of the affected device, replacing it with a supported model, or isolating it from untrusted networks to prevent remote exploitation.
