DrayTek Router Roulette: Security Flaw Leaves Devices Vulnerable to Remote Hijinks
DrayTek’s Vigor routers have a vulnerability CVE-2025-10547 that lets remote actors perform arbitrary code execution. The fix? Update your firmware pronto. Think of it as a router spa day, only it’s less about relaxation and more about preventing cyber mayhem.
Hot Take:
Looks like DrayTek’s routers have caught the cybersecurity equivalent of the common cold, and it’s time to start handing out digital chicken soup in the form of firmware updates. But don’t worry, these routers might wobble a bit, but they’re not down for the count just yet!
Key Points:
- DrayTek warned about a vulnerability in various Vigor router models, tagged as CVE-2025-10547.
- The flaw could allow remote, unauthenticated actors to execute arbitrary code via crafted HTTP/HTTPS requests.
- Disabling remote WebUI/SSL VPN access or using ACLs/VLANs can reduce WAN exposure.
- The root cause is an uninitialized stack value leading to arbitrary memory operations.
- System administrators are urged to update firmware to mitigate the risk.
