Impact
The OTA server’s raw parser in EmberZNet v9.0.2 and earlier fails to perform per‑field bounds validation on malformed OTA requests, allowing an out‑of‑bounds read that leaks a small, limited chunk of RAM contents to the requester. The weakness is identified as CWE‑125 and could expose sensitive data to an attacker.
Affected Systems
Silicon Labs EmberZNet firmware versions 9.0.2 and earlier are affected. Any device that has joined the network and implements the OTA Server cluster is vulnerable, as the attacker must send malformed OTA messages to that device.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 7.1 classifies this vulnerability as high severity. EPSS data is not available, so the exact exploitation probability is unknown, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV. The likely attack vector requires an attacker to be a member of the network that can issue OTA requests; successful exploitation would allow reading a few bytes of memory, potentially leaking proprietary information.
