[ASA-202505-8] nodejs-lts-iron: multiple issues

A remote attacker can exploit multiple vulnerabilities in Node.js to cause a denial of service or bypass access restrictions. Improper error handling and memory management flaws may crash the process or lead to unbounded memory usage, while an HTTP parsing inconsistency in Node.js 20.x can enable request smuggling, allowing attackers to evade proxy-based access controls and submit unauthorized requests.

[ASA-202505-7] nodejs-lts-jod: denial of service

A remote attacker can exploit improper error handling and memory management flaws in Node.js to crash the process or exhaust system resources, leading to a denial of service. Specifically, malformed input may trigger a crash in asynchronous cryptographic operations, while repeated use of file system APIs with crafted input may cause unbounded memory growth.

[ASA-202505-5] webkitgtk-6.0: arbitrary code execution

A remote attacker could craft malicious web content that exploits use-after-free vulnerabilities in WPE WebKit, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. This can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of affected systems, especially those rendering untrusted web content through WPE WebKit.

[ASA-202505-4] webkit2gtk-4.1: arbitrary code execution

A remote attacker could craft malicious web content that exploits use-after-free vulnerabilities in WPE WebKit, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. This can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of affected systems, especially those rendering untrusted web content through WPE WebKit.

[ASA-202505-3] webkit2gtk: arbitrary code execution

A remote attacker could craft malicious web content that exploits use-after-free vulnerabilities in WPE WebKit, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. This can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of affected systems, especially those rendering untrusted web content through WPE WebKit.

[ASA-202505-2] wpewebkit: arbitrary code execution

A remote attacker could craft malicious web content that exploits use-after-free vulnerabilities in WPE WebKit, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. This can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of affected systems, especially those rendering untrusted web content through WPE WebKit.

CISA Adds Three Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog

CISA has added three new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation. 

  • CVE-2024-12987 DrayTek Vigor Routers OS Command Injection Vulnerability
  • CVE-2025-4664 Google Chromium Loader Insufficient Policy Enforcement Vulnerability
  • CVE-2025-42999 SAP NetWeaver Deserialization Vulnerability

These types of vulnerabilities are frequent attack vectors for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise. 

Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities established the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog as a living list of known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that carry significant risk to the federal enterprise. BOD 22-01 requires Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to remediate identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect FCEB networks against active threats. See the BOD 22-01 Fact Sheet for more information. 

Although BOD 22-01 only applies to FCEB agencies, CISA strongly urges all organizations to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks by prioritizing timely remediation of Catalog vulnerabilities as part of their vulnerability management practice. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria

3.2 VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW

3.2.1 Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key CWE-321

ECOVACS robot vacuums and base stations communicate via an insecure Wi-Fi network with a deterministic WPA2-PSK. The key can be easily derived from the device serial number.

CVE-2025-30198 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.3 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).

A CVSS v4 score has also been calculated for CVE-2025-30198. A base score of 5.3 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N).

3.2.2 Download of Code Without Integrity Check CWE-494

ECOVACS vacuum robot base stations do not validate firmware updates, so malicious over-the-air updates can be sent to base station via insecure connection between robot and base station.

CVE-2025-30199 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.2 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).

A CVSS v4 score has also been calculated for CVE-2025-30199. A base score of 8.6 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N).

CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of these vulnerabilities, such as:

  • Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, ensuring they are not accessible from the Internet.
  • Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolating them from business networks.
  • When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as virtual private networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize VPN is only as secure as the connected devices.

CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.

CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.

CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets.

Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies.

Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.

CISA also recommends users take the following measures to protect themselves from social engineering attacks:
