CVE-2025-34071 is a critical remote code execution vulnerability affecting GFI Kerio Control 9.4.5. It allows attackers with administrative access to upload and execute arbitrary code by exploiting the firmware upgrade feature, which accepts unsigned .img files containing malicious scripts. This vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 9.8 (CRITICAL) due to its network-based attack vector, low complexity, and complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, leading to root access. While there is no known active exploitation or public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), the vulnerability has garnered community attention, with a recent Mastodon post highlighting its high risk for perimeter devices.
