Risks

Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities in SonicWall SMA100 SSL-VPN (CVE-2025-32819, CVE-2025-32820, CVE-2025-32821) could allow remote authenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files, inject path traversal sequences to write arbitrary directories, or perform remote command injection, potentially compromising the entire device.

These vulnerabilities have a significant impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

There is no evidence that a public proof-of-concept exists. There is no evidence of proof of active exploitation at the moment.

Description

Exploitation of vulnerabilities in SonicWall SMA100 SSL-VPN (CVE-2025-32819, CVE-2025-32820, CVE-2025-32821) allows remote authenticated attackers to:
→ Delete arbitrary files, potentially resetting the device (CVE-2025-32819).
→ Write to any directory on the appliance, compromising its integrity (CVE-2025-32820).
→ Inject shell commands, enabling arbitrary file uploads and further system compromise (CVE-2025-32821).
→ Escalate privileges, taking full control of the device.
→ Install malware for persistent access.

Recommended Actions

Patch
The Centre for Cybersecurity Belgium strongly recommends installing updates for vulnerable devices with the highest priority after thorough testing.

Monitor/Detect
The CCB recommends organizations upscale monitoring and detection capabilities to identify any related suspicious activity and ensure a swift response in case of an intrusion.

In case of an intrusion, you can report an incident via https://ccb.belgium.be/en/cert/report-incident.

While patching appliances or software to the newest version may protect against future exploitation, it does not remediate historic compromise.
