Published: 25 July 2024
Summary
CVE-2024-41468 is a critical-severity OS Command Injection (CWE-78) vulnerability in Tendacn Fh1201 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 0.8% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Deeper analysis
Tenda FH1201 v1.2.0.14 contains a command injection vulnerability in the /goform/exeCommand endpoint that accepts unsanitized input via the cmdinput parameter. The issue is tracked as CVE-2024-41468, carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8, and is associated with CWE-78 and CWE-94.
An unauthenticated attacker with network access can supply crafted commands through the affected parameter and achieve arbitrary command execution on the device. Successful exploitation grants full control over the router, enabling confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts without requiring user interaction or credentials.
The supplied references consist of a public proof-of-concept disclosure and do not contain vendor advisory or patch information. The EPSS score stands at 0.8151 with no indicated rise from a lower baseline.

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Validates inputs to block special elements that would alter OS command execution.
Platform-independent apps typically execute inside a managed runtime or sandbox that restricts direct OS command execution, reducing the ability to exploit OS command injection.
Makes persistent code injection into loaded programs impossible when the executable image itself resides on hardware-protected read-only media.
Dynamically generated code can be produced and executed inside the isolated chamber, preventing host compromise from code-injection payloads.
Directly prevents execution of attacker-supplied code written into data memory regions.
