Remote Command Execution Vulnerability in Yi IOT XY-3820
CVE-2025-29659
What is CVE-2025-29659?
CVE-2025-29659 is a critical vulnerability found in the Yi IOT XY-3820, which serves as an Internet of Things (IoT) device used for smart monitoring solutions. This vulnerability enables a remote command execution flaw through the "cmd_listen" function in its software. If exploited, it allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the device, which could significantly compromise an organization’s security by granting unauthorized control over connected systems.
Technical Details
This vulnerability exists in version 6.0.24.10 of the Yi IOT XY-3820. The affected function, "cmd_listen," is part of the device's underlying command binary, which processes commands from external sources. The lack of adequate input validation creates a pathway for attackers to send crafted inputs that the system would execute, leading to potential unauthorized command execution.
Potential Impact of CVE-2025-29659
-
Unauthorized Access and Control: Attackers could gain full control over the device, allowing them to execute commands that could disrupt services or manipulate device operations.
-
Data Exfiltration: Compromised devices could lead to sensitive data being retrieved by unauthorized entities, posing a significant risk to privacy and security for organizations utilizing these IoT solutions.
-
Network Breach and Propagation: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability might allow attackers to move laterally within the organization's network, potentially leading to the compromise of further systems and creating a wider security incident.
