Last modified

CVE-2025-1038 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. The “Diagnostics Tools” page of the web-based configuration utility does not properly validate user-controlled input, allowing an authenticated user with high privileges to inject commands into the command shell of the TropOS 4th Gen device. The injected commands can be exploited to execute several set-uid (SUID) applications to ultimately gain root access to the TropOS device.. EPSS estimates a 0.29% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
