CVE-2025-14733

WatchGuard Firebox iked Out of Bounds Write Vulnerability

State: Published
Severity: 9.3 Critical
Published: Dec 19, 2025
Updated: Sep 9, 2026
Reserved: Dec 15, 2025

Description

An Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in the WatchGuard Fireware OS iked process may allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects both the mobile user VPN with IKEv2 and the branch office VPN using IKEv2 when configured with a dynamic gateway peer.

If the Firebox was previously configured with the mobile user VPN with IKEv2 or a branch office VPN using IKEv2 to a dynamic gateway peer, and both of those configurations have since been deleted, that Firebox may still be vulnerable if a branch office VPN to a static gateway peer is still configured.
