- TP-Link patched four Omada gateway flaws, two rated critical for code execution
- Three were command injection bugs; one allowed root shell via privilege mismanagement
- Multiple models affected; one critical flaw requires no authentication for exploitation
Network gear manufacturer TP-Link has patched four vulnerabilities discovered in its Omada gateway products, including two critical severity ones that could allow arbitrary code execution.
In a security advisory, TP-Link said three out of four flaws were command injection vulnerabilities. The fourth one was an improper privilege management flaw.
Both critical-level ones were command injection flaws, and are tracked as CVE-2025-6542, and CVE-2025-7850, with both having a 9.3/10 severity score. For the latter one, an attacker also needs to have admin access to the web portal, while for the former, no authentication is needed.
Numerous models affected
The other two flaws are tracked as CVE-2025-6541 (score 8.6/10), and CVE-2025-7851. The first one is exploitable by users with access to the web management interface, while the second one is the improper privilege management one – allowing threat actors to obtain the root shell on the underlying operating system.
Multiple product models and versions were said to be affected. Here is the entire list:
ER8411 < 1.3.3 Build 20251013 Rel.44647
ER7412-M2 < 1.1.0 Build 20251015 Rel.63594

TP-Link did not mention if these flaws were being exploited in the wild or not. However, cybercriminals often wait for companies to release advisories before attacking, knowing that many organizations rarely apply the fixes on time.
