Summary
An LDAP Injection vulnerability in WatchGuard Fireware OS may allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to retrieve sensitive information from a connected LDAP authentication server through an exposed authentication or management web interface. It may also allow a remote attacker to authenticate as an LDAP user with a partial identifier if they additionally have that user's valid passphrase.
Risk Assessment
The risk includes leakage of sensitive data from the LDAP server and unauthorized access to the system as an LDAP user, potentially leading to confidentiality and integrity breaches.
Recommendation
It is recommended to apply patches provided by WatchGuard immediately and restrict access to management and authentication interfaces to trusted networks only.

- CVE-2025-14733CriticalActively exploited
An Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in the WatchGuard Fireware OS iked process may allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code. It affects both mobile user VPN with IKEv2 and branch office VPN using IKEv2 when configured with a dynamic gateway peer. Even after deleting those configurations, if a branch office VPN to a static gateway peer remains, the Firebox may still be vulnerable.
- CVE-2025-9242CriticalActively exploited
Out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the iked process of WatchGuard Fireware OS. A remote unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary code. Affects mobile user VPN with IKEv2 and branch office VPN using IKEv2 when configured with a dynamic gateway peer. If configurations were deleted but a branch office VPN to a static peer remains, the device may still be vulnerable.
