CVE-2025-41664
highpriority · track · 0EPSS 0.002 · 16 %ileDEEUEPSS · scored 2026-10-27
A low-privileged remote attacker could gain unauthorized access to critical resources, such as firmware and certificates, due to improper permission handling during the runtime of services (e.g., FTP/SFTP). This access could allow the attacker to escalate privileges and modify firmware.
remediations
Vendor fix, mitigation, or workaround guidance, as published by each source.
A vendor fix is available.
- Fixedwago_psirt
Update to Firmware version 13.
- Mitigationwago_psirt
By default, FTP is disabled on these devices. To prevent exploitation of this vulnerability, it is recommended to also disable SFTP in firmware versions below 13 through the device's configuration settings.

Vendor and ecosystem advisories describing this.
- VDE-2025-048WAGO: Escalation of Privileges in Coupler Firmware2025-09-08csaf · wago_psirtDE
A design flaw in the file system management exposes internal system partitions - intended to be hidden - during brief moments when they are mounted by the firmware. These partitions contain sensitive data such as firmware and certificates. Although access to the file system is mediated by a Nucleus layer that supports permission control, these permissions are currently not enforced. As a result, services like FTP/SFTP may inadvertently gain access to critical internal resources, increasing the risk of unauthorized access or data leakage.
