Critical Cybersecurity Flaws Exposed: Are You Safe?

Today’s Cybersecurity Round-Up

Welcome to today’s daily cybersecurity news update, where we unpack a variety of vulnerabilities that are making headlines. From Dell PowerScale issues to multiple critical buffer overflow vulnerabilities, it’s been a busy day in cyber risk land. Let’s dive into the details and see what’s shaking up the cybersecurity world.

Dell PowerScale Vulnerability: A Critical Breach

A recent vulnerability discovered in the Dell PowerScale OneFS storage operating system has enabled attackers to gain unauthorised filesystem access. This flaw highlights the need for vigilance in managing system updates and keeping an eye on potential vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure. For organisations that depend on secure storage solutions, ensuring robust cybersecurity measures are in place is absolutely vital.

Multiple TOTOLINK Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

Security researchers have identified several critical buffer overflow vulnerabilities affecting TOTOLINK devices. The issues pertain to the HTTP POST Request Handler in various functions, and include specific cases such as:

• CVE-2025-5736: A vulnerability in the /boafrm/formNtp file that can be exploited remotely via manipulation of the submit-url parameter.
• CVE-2025-5735: A flaw in the /boafrm/formSetLg file where tampering with the submit-url argument leads to a buffer overflow.
• CVE-2025-5734: An issue in the /boafrm/formWlanRedirect file where attacking the redirect-url parameter poses a similar risk.

Additionally, vulnerabilities affecting the TOTOLINK N302R Plus have been disclosed (CVE-2025-5672 and CVE-2025-5671), further underlining the importance of patch management and proactive monitoring for connected devices.

WordPress and Other Noteworthy Vulnerabilities

A critical flaw in the WP Email Debug plugin (CVE-2025-5486) could allow unauthenticated attackers to escalate privileges by exploiting a missing capability check. When combined with other issues—such as Citrix ShareFile’s permission mishaps (CVE-2025-48911) and an authentication bypass in the DSoftBus module (CVE-2025-48906)—it’s clear that cybercriminals have a buffet of vulnerabilities to choose from.

Exploitation in Webmail and Beyond

In a crafty twist, hackers have exploited a vulnerability in the Roundcube webmail platform (CVE-2024-42009) to steal user credentials via an XSS attack. Meanwhile, risks also extend to environments utilising Power Automate (CVE-2025-47966) and even Tenda products (CVE-2025-5685), where issues with buffer overflow can have widespread implications.

A Wider Cybersecurity Landscape

This array of vulnerabilities—from DNS hijacking threats targeting UK Government domains to exploitable flaws in ConnectWise ScreenConnect—serves as a timely reminder for all organisations to regularly review and update their cybersecurity defences. It’s a great moment to reflect on best practices in risk control and to ensure robust processes are in place for incident response and compliance.
