CVE-2025-9253
Status: AnalyzedHigh (7.4)—
A security vulnerability has been detected in Linksys RE6250, RE6300, RE6350, RE6500, RE7000 and RE9000 1.0.013.001/1.0.04.001/1.0.04.002/1.1.05.003/1.2.07.001. Affected by this issue is the function RP_doSpecifySiteSurvey of the file /goform/RP_doSpecifySiteSurvey. The manipulation of the argument ssidhex leads to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
CVSS

- Base score: 7.4
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.96%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 60
- Score date: 10/5/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
🎯 ATT&CK techniques
