Hidden backdoors, sloppy fixes: new TP-Link flaws let researchers — and attackers — root routers
Researchers at Forescout’s Vedere Labs say they’ve pulled open a fresh set of dangerous doors in TP-Link’s Omada and Festa VPN appliances — two newly cataloged vulnerabilities that let an attacker execute shell commands as root and resurrect a patched debug backdoor. The duo of flaws, tracked as CVE-2025-7850 and CVE-2025-7851 , expose an uncomfortable truth: incremental patches that don’t remove legacy developer features can create new, high-severity attack paths. The most
