AI-suggested
To mitigate CVE-2025-11388, organizations should immediately check if they are running Tenda AC15 devices with firmware version 15.03.05.18. In the interim, network administrators should restrict access to the router's management interface by limiting it to trusted internal networks and disabling remote management if enabled. Implement network segmentation to isolate critical systems from vulnerable devices. Employ intrusion detection or prevention systems to monitor for exploit attempts targeting the /goform/setNotUpgrade endpoint. Additionally, consider replacing affected devices with models from vendors with a stronger security track record if timely patches are not forthcoming. Regularly audit and update router firmware as part of a comprehensive device management policy to reduce exposure to similar vulnerabilities.
