Likely Mitigating ControlsAI
Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Security testing and developer training directly verify and enforce proper input validation, reducing exploitability of injection and malformed-data weaknesses.
Security testing and evaluation at multiple SDLC stages directly detects missing or flawed input validation, with the required remediation process ensuring fixes are applied.
Directly implements checks on information inputs to reject invalid data before processing.
Spam protection mechanisms perform filtering and detection on inbound/outbound messages, directly compensating for missing or weak input validation of unsolicited content.
MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI
Why these techniques?
Improper input validation enables remote crash via malformed network input, directly matching Application or System Exploitation for Endpoint DoS.
NVD Description
In nr modem, there is a possible system crash due to improper input validation. This could lead to remote denial of service with no additional execution privileges needed.
Deeper analysisAI
CVE-2025-61615 is a vulnerability in the nr modem component, stemming from improper input validation (CWE-20). This flaw can cause a system crash, enabling a remote denial-of-service (DoS) condition without requiring additional execution privileges. The issue has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H), indicating high severity due to its network accessibility, low attack complexity, and lack of prerequisites for exploitation.
Any unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability over the network by sending malformed input to the affected nr modem, triggering a crash that disrupts system availability. Successful exploitation results in a denial of service but does not grant code execution, privilege escalation, or data access, as confirmed by the CVSS impact metrics showing no confidentiality or integrity effects.
