Hardware makers MediaTek, HPE and Dell on Monday released advisories to inform customers about potentially serious vulnerabilities found and patched in their products.
Taiwanese semiconductor company MediaTek announced patches for a dozen vulnerabilities, including a critical-severity flaw in the modem component of tens of chipsets that could lead to remote code execution (RCE).
Tracked as CVE-2024-20154, the issue is described as an out-of-bounds write that could be exploited when a device is connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, without user interaction.
MediaTek’s advisory also details seven high-severity bugs that could lead to local escalation of privilege, or RCE if the attacker is adjacent to the vulnerable device.
Dell announced patches for a high-severity defect in its Update Package (DUP) Framework, tracked as CVE-2025-22395 and described as a local escalation of privilege issue that could enable the execution of arbitrary scripts, leading to denial-of-service (DoS) conditions. DUP framework version 22.01.02 resolves the vulnerability.
Additionally, the tech company released fixes for multiple products affected by CVE-2024-52316, an Apache Tomcat vulnerability disclosed in November 2024, which could lead to authentication bypass.
HPE announced patches for multiple flaws in third-party components used in its SAN switches running Brocade Fabric OS (FOS), including high- and medium-severity issues that could lead to escalation of privilege, remote command execution, authentication bypass, DoS, and arbitrary file creation or deletion.
The company’s advisory mentions ten security defects: two publicly disclosed in 2022, four disclosed in 2023, and four identified in 2024. All bugs were fixed in versions 9.2.2, 9.2.1a1, and 9.2.0c of the FOS firmware for HPE B-Series products.
