CVE-2025-67041: An issue was discovered in Lantronix EDS3000PS 3.1.0.0R2.
An issue was discovered in Lantronix EDS3000PS 3.1.0.0R2. The host parameter of the TFTP client in the Filesystem Browser page is not properly sanitized. This can be exploited to escape from the original command and execute an arbitrary one with root privileges.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
A flaw in Lantronix EDS3000PS firmware 3.1.0.0R2 may let an unauthenticated remote attacker take complete control of the device. A malicious value supplied to the TFTP client’s host field can run operating-system commands as root, threatening device confidentiality, integrity, availability, and connected operations.
Executive priority
Treat confirmed 3.1.0.0R2 deployments as an urgent remediation priority, especially in operational or internet-reachable environments. Root-level compromise could disrupt device operations and provide access to sensitive configurations. Do not interpret the absence from KEV as evidence of safety; prioritize inventory, access restriction, monitoring, and vendor-directed remediation.
Technical view
The Filesystem Browser’s TFTP client does not properly sanitize its host parameter, enabling operating-system command injection and arbitrary command execution with root privileges. The supplied CVSS 3.1 vector indicates network reachability, low complexity, no privileges, and no user interaction. The record associates CWE-78, CWE-288, and CWE-620 with the issue.
Likely exposure
Exposure is highest where an EDS3000PS running 3.1.0.0R2 has its affected management functionality reachable from untrusted or broadly accessible networks. The bundle does not identify other affected versions or products. Organizations should inventory firmware versions and verify whether access to the Filesystem Browser is tightly restricted.
Exploitation context
The vulnerability is technically severe because exploitation requires neither authentication nor user interaction and yields root-level command execution. However, the supplied record says it is not in CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and the sources provided do not establish active exploitation or public exploit availability.
Researcher notes
The supplied description clearly identifies an unsanitized TFTP host parameter and root command execution, consistent with CWE-78. The CVSS score is 9.8. Evidence is incomplete regarding additional affected versions, attack-path prerequisites beyond the vector, patches, workarounds, public proof-of-concept code, and observed exploitation. Validation should remain non-invasive in production environments.
Mitigation direction
Check Lantronix and CISA guidance for an approved firmware update or vendor-specific remediation.
Restrict device management access to trusted administrative networks and authorized hosts.
Block untrusted network access to the Filesystem Browser and related TFTP functionality where operationally feasible.
Monitor affected devices for unexpected configuration changes, processes, connections, or service disruption.
If remediation is unavailable, isolate affected devices and apply compensating network controls.
Validation and detection
Inventory EDS3000PS devices and confirm their exact installed firmware versions.
Verify whether any identified device runs version 3.1.0.0R2.
Review firewall and access-control rules governing each device’s management interface.
Confirm untrusted users cannot reach the Filesystem Browser or TFTP client functionality.
Review device and network logs for unusual administrative activity or outbound connections.
Verify vendor-recommended remediation after implementation without attempting command injection.

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
