Summary

CVE-2026-3799 is a high-severity Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer (CWE-119) vulnerability in Tenda I3 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 7.4 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Compromise Infrastructure (T1584); ranked in the top 36% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2026-3799 is a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability affecting the Tenda i3 router running firmware version 1.0.0.6(2204). The flaw resides in the formSetCfm function of the /goform/setcfm endpoint, where manipulation of the funcpara1 argument triggers the overflow. It is classified under CWE-119 (Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer) and CWE-121 (Stack-based Buffer Overflow).

Remote exploitation is possible with low attack complexity over the network by an attacker possessing low privileges (PR:L), requiring no user interaction. Successful exploitation can result in high impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H), as indicated by the CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), potentially allowing arbitrary code execution and full device compromise.

An exploit has been publicly released on GitHub (https://github.com/Svigo-o/Tenda_vul/tree/main/tenda-i3-setcfm-funcpara1-buffer-overflow). Further details are documented on VulDB (https://vuldb.com/?ctiid.349766, https://vuldb.com/?id.349766, https://vuldb.com/?submit.768976). Practitioners should consult the vendor site (https://www.tenda.com.cn/) for mitigation guidance or firmware updates, as no specific patches are detailed in the available references.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and analysis can discover stack-buffer overflows before deployment.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from exceeding stack buffer bounds.

Memory-protection mechanisms limit the ability to execute injected code after a stack overflow.

Secure engineering principles require memory-safe design and coding that structurally avoids buffer-boundary violations.
