Summary
CVE-2026-86152 is a critical OS command injection vulnerability in Tenda CP3 firmware version 27.5.57.101. The flaw resides in the CAutoAddWifi::ThreadProc function of Functions/AutoAddWifi.cpp within the device’s "Kylin" component, and can be exploited remotely without authentication to execute arbitrary operating system commands. The vulnerability carries a maximum CVSS v3.1 base score of 10.0 (Critical).
Technical details
- Root cause: Insufficient sanitization of input processed by the
CAutoAddWifi::ThreadProcfunction inFunctions/AutoAddWifi.cpp, part of the device’s Kylin component, allowing attacker-controlled data to be passed into an OS command execution context. - Trigger conditions: An attacker sends a crafted request/input that reaches the vulnerable
ThreadProcfunction; no authentication or user interaction is required. - Attack vector: Network — the vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network with low attack complexity.
- Impact: Successful exploitation allows arbitrary OS command execution, resulting in complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected device.
Affected software
- Tenda CP3 firmware version 27.5.57.101 (Kylin component)
Severity
- CVSS v3.1 Base Score: 10.0 (Critical)
- Vector:
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Mitigation and recommended actions
- Immediate: No official vendor patch or advisory has been identified for this CVE at time of publication. Check Tenda’s official support channels regularly for firmware updates addressing this issue and apply them as soon as they become available.
- If no patch is available:
- Remove the affected device from direct internet exposure; do not expose its management/administrative interfaces to the public internet.
- Restrict network access to the device to trusted internal hosts only, using firewall rules or network segmentation.
- Disable any auto Wi-Fi provisioning/"AutoAddWifi" related functionality if configurable, until a fix is available.
- Monitor device logs and network traffic for anomalous command execution or unexpected outbound connections.
- Consider replacing or isolating the device if it cannot be promptly patched, given the unauthenticated, network-exploitable nature of this flaw.
