    TP-Link Omada and Festa VPN router vulnerabilities disclosed

    Technical Analysis Update

    Forescout’s Vedere Labs disclosed two vulnerabilities in TP-Link Omada and Festa VPN routers, tracked as CVE-2025-7850 and CVE-2025-7851, that could enable command injection and unauthorized root access. The researchers tied both flaws to an incomplete fix for CVE-2024-21827 that left residual debug functionality accessible, and found that the WireGuard VPN settings Web UI on the ER605v2 router exposed an unsanitized private-key field that could let an authenticated user inject arbitrary OS commands with root privileges. TP-Link has released firmware patches, and the researchers advised immediate patching, deployment of web application firewalls before management interfaces, disabling remote administration where feasible, and logging admin sessions and router traffic for anomalies and exploitation indicators.
