Summary

CVE-2025-7418 is a high-severity Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer (CWE-119) vulnerability in Tenda O3 Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 7.4 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked in the top 47% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Tenda O3V2 firmware version 1.0.0.12(3880). It resides in the fromPingResultGet function within the /goform/setPing endpoint of the httpd component and is triggered by unsanitized input to the destIP argument. The issue is tracked as CVE-2025-7418, carries a CVSS 4.0 score of 7.4, and is also associated with CWE-119 and CWE-121.

An authenticated remote attacker can supply a crafted destIP value to the affected endpoint and trigger the overflow, resulting in arbitrary code execution or a denial of service. Public proof-of-concept code has been released, confirming that exploitation requires only network access and valid credentials for the device.

The EPSS score remains flat at 0.0157 with no material increase after disclosure. Available references consist solely of public vulnerability disclosures and proof-of-concept repositories; no vendor advisory or patch information is referenced.
