CVE-2018-25237 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Hirschmann HiSecOS devices versions prior to 05.3.03 contain a buffer overflow vulnerability in the HTTPS login interface when RADIUS authentication is enabled that allows remote attackers to crash the device or execute arbitrary code by submitting a password longer than 128 characters. Attackers can exploit improper bounds checking in password handling to overflow a fixed-size buffer and achieve denial of service or remote code execution.. EPSS estimates a 0.82% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
