Scope: Unchanged
Confidentiality: High
Integrity: None
Availability: High

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: High: There is total loss of availability, resulting in the attacker being able to fully deny access to resources in the impacted component; this loss is either sustained (while the attacker continues to deliver the attack) or persistent (the condition persists even after the attack has completed). Alternatively, the attacker has the ability to deny some availability, but the loss of availability presents a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component (e.g., the attacker cannot disrupt existing connections, but can prevent new connections; the attacker can repeatedly exploit a vulnerability that, in each instance of a successful attack, leaks a only small amount of memory, but after repeated exploitation causes a service to become completely unavailable).

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

AI-suggested

1. Monitor official Samsung and chipset vendor channels closely for security patches addressing CVE-2025-27807 and prioritize rapid deployment across all affected devices in organizational environments. 2. Implement network-level filtering to detect and block malformed NAS packets at the cellular network gateway or via mobile device management (MDM) solutions that support advanced packet inspection. 3. Employ anomaly detection systems to identify unusual NAS signaling traffic patterns that could indicate exploitation attempts. 4. Limit exposure by restricting device connectivity to trusted cellular networks and disabling unnecessary cellular interfaces on IoT or wearable devices where feasible. 5. Educate users and administrators about the risks and signs of device instability or compromise related to this vulnerability. 6. Collaborate with mobile network operators to ensure they are aware of the vulnerability and can assist in filtering malicious traffic at the network edge. 7. For critical infrastructure relying on affected modems, consider deploying additional network segmentation and intrusion prevention systems to contain potential breaches. 8. Maintain up-to-date inventories of devices using affected Exynos processors to ensure comprehensive coverage during patching and mitigation efforts.

Description

An issue was discovered in Samsung Mobile Processor, Wearable Processor, and Modem Exynos 980, 990, 850, 1080, 2100, 1280, 2200, 1330, 1380, 1480, 2400, 1580, 9110, W920, W930, W1000, Modem 5123, Modem 5300, Modem 5400. The lack of a length check leads to out-of-bounds writes via malformed NAS packets.

Impact

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-27807 can be significant due to the widespread use of Samsung devices in both consumer and enterprise environments. Mobile devices using affected Exynos processors are common among employees, and wearables with these chips may be integrated into corporate wellness or operational monitoring programs. A successful exploit could lead to denial of service, causing device outages and disrupting communication. More critically, if code execution is achieved, attackers could gain unauthorized access to sensitive corporate data or use compromised devices as footholds for lateral movement within networks. The vulnerability also threatens availability of critical communication infrastructure relying on affected modems. Given the remote and unauthenticated nature of the exploit, attackers could target devices at scale, potentially impacting large user bases. This poses risks to sectors such as finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and government agencies in Europe that rely heavily on mobile connectivity and IoT devices. The confidentiality impact is high, as attackers could intercept or manipulate sensitive data. The availability impact is also high due to potential device crashes or network disruptions. The lack of known exploits currently provides a window for proactive defense, but the critical severity demands immediate attention to prevent future attacks.
