⚠️ A sneaky stack overflow hides in Tenda AC6! This vulnerability arises from the schedstarttime parameter in the openSchedWifi function, ready to cause some mischief. 🦸♂️ Think of this like a restaurant where the orders start piling up, but the kitchen runs out of space to put them, causing chaos! If it keeps receiving requests without handling them properly, the whole system can crash! If exploited, the stack overflow could lead to unexpected behavior or crashes in your Tenda AC6 device, leading to potential connectivity issues. While it hasn’t been known to be actively exploited yet, it’s better to be safe than sorry!
