CVE-2025-68715
Published: 08 January 2026
Summary
CVE-2025-68715 is a critical-severity Missing Authentication for Critical Function (CWE-306) vulnerability in Pandawireless Pwru01 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 9.1 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 45.6th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 AC-14 (Permitted Actions Without Identification or Authentication) and AC-3 (Access Enforcement).
Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-68715 is a missing authentication vulnerability (CWE-306) affecting Panda Wireless PWRU0 devices running firmware version 2.2.9. The flaw exposes multiple HTTP endpoints, including /goform/setWan, /goform/setLan, and /goform/wirelessBasic, which lack proper authentication enforcement. This allows unauthorized access to critical configuration functions. The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its network accessibility, low complexity, and impacts on integrity and availability.
A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by directly sending HTTP requests to the exposed endpoints. Successful exploitation enables modification of WAN, LAN, and wireless settings, potentially leading to privilege escalation and denial of service conditions, such as disrupting network connectivity.
