CVE-2025-60016 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.7/10 on the CVSS scale. When Diffie-Hellman (DH) group Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) Brainpool curves are configured in an SSL profile's Cipher Rule or Cipher Group, and that profile is applied to a virtual server, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.. EPSS estimates a 0.40% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
