CVE-2026-7470 is a high-severity Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer (CWE-119) vulnerability in Tenda 4G300 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 7.4 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 41th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
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.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2026-7470 is a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the Tenda 4G300 router running firmware version US_4G300V1.0Mt_V1.01.42_CN_TDC01. The flaw resides in the sub_427C3C function within the /goform/SafeMacFilter file, triggered by manipulation of the "page" argument. This issue, classified under CWE-119 (Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer) and CWE-121 (Stack-based Buffer Overflow), was published on 2026-04-30 and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Attackers with low privileges, such as authenticated users on the network, can remotely exploit this vulnerability over the network with low complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation enables high-impact confidentiality, integrity, and availability violations, potentially leading to full device compromise, including arbitrary code execution.
Advisories from VulDB (vuln/360206) and a related GitHub repository detail the vulnerability and provide a published exploit for the sub_427C3C function. Security practitioners should consult the vendor's site at tenda.com.cn for any firmware updates or mitigation guidance, as remote exploitation is feasible.
The exploit's public availability on GitHub increases the risk of real-world attacks against unpatched Tenda 4G300 devices.

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.
