FKIE_CVE-2025-15608

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-03-20 17:16 - Updated: 2026-04-02 20:53
Severity ?
9.8 (Critical) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
This vulnerability in AX53 v1 results from insufficient input sanitization in the device’s probe handling logic, where unvalidated parameters can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow that causes the affected service to crash and, under specific conditions, may enable remote code execution through complex heap-spray techniques. Successful exploitation may result in repeated service unavailability and, in certain scenarios, allow an attacker to gain control of the device.
