CVE-2026-24428
HighSummary
A vulnerability in Shenzhen Tenda W30E V2 firmware versions up to and including V16.01.0.19(5037) allows an authenticated low-privileged user to change the administrator password. The attack involves sending a crafted request directly to the user management API, bypassing role-based restrictions enforced by the web interface.
Risk Assessment
The risk to the organization is full takeover of the router by an unauthorized user, potentially leading to network integrity compromise, traffic interception, or further attacks on the infrastructure.
Recommendation
Immediately update the Tenda W30E router firmware to the latest available version if a patch is provided by the vendor. If no patch is available, restrict administrative interface access to trusted networks only and monitor logs for unusual password changes.

- CVE-2026-24430High
A vulnerability in Shenzhen Tenda W30E V2 firmware versions up to and including V16.01.0.19(5037) discloses sensitive account credentials in cleartext within HTTP responses generated by the maintenance interface. Because the management interface is accessible over unencrypted HTTP by default, credentials may be exposed to network-based interception.
