Summary

CVE-2025-7465 is a high-severity Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer (CWE-119) vulnerability in Tenda Fh1201 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 critical buffer overflow vulnerability tracked as CVE-2025-7465 affects Tenda FH1201 firmware version 1.2.0.14. The flaw is located in the fromRouteStatic function within the /goform/fromRouteStatic file of the HTTP POST Request Handler component; improper handling of the page argument triggers the overflow, which is tracked under CWE-119 and CWE-120.

An authenticated remote attacker can exploit the issue by sending a crafted HTTP POST request to the affected endpoint. Successful exploitation can result in high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the device, consistent with the CVSS 4.0 score of 7.4. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without user interaction, and a working exploit has already been made public.

The listed references point to disclosure entries on Vuldb and a detailed Notion page, along with the vendor site, but contain no information on patches or specific mitigation steps. The associated EPSS score remains flat at 0.0110 with no material rise after publication.
