CVE-2025-20724 is a medium-severity vulnerability in MediaTek WLAN AP drivers affecting multiple chipsets including MT6890, MT7615, MT7622, MT7663, MT7915, MT7916, MT7981, and MT7986. It involves an out-of-bounds read due to improper bounds checking, potentially allowing local attackers with user privileges to disclose sensitive information. Exploitation does not require user interaction but does require local user execution privileges. The vulnerability affects SDK releases up to 7.6.7.2 and certain openWRT versions for MT6890. No known exploits are currently in the wild, and a patch has been identified but not linked. The CVSS score is 5.5, reflecting a medium risk primarily due to confidentiality impact without integrity or availability compromise.

In wlan AP driver, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an incorrect bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege if a malicious actor has already obtained the System privilege. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: WCNCR00419946; Issue ID: MSV-3582.

In wlan AP driver, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an incorrect bounds check.

Patch ID: WCNCR00421149; Issue ID: MSV-3728.

In wlan AP driver, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an incorrect bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege if a malicious actor has already obtained the System privilege. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: WCNCR00421152; Issue ID: MSV-3731.

In gnss driver, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an incorrect bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege if a malicious actor has already obtained the System privilege. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: ALPS09920033; Issue ID: MSV-3797.

CVE-2025-20722 is an integer overflow vulnerability in the GNSS driver of multiple MediaTek chipsets, including MT6835 through MT8873. The flaw allows a local attacker with system privileges to perform an out-of-bounds read, potentially leading to information disclosure. Exploitation does not require user interaction but does require prior system-level access. The vulnerability affects devices running Android 14.0 and 15.0, openWRT 21.02 and 23.05, and RDKB 24Q1. Although no known exploits are currently in the wild, the medium severity CVSS score of 5.5 reflects the significant confidentiality impact but limited integrity and availability effects.
