CVE-2025-11643
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA security flaw has been discovered in Tomofun Furbo 360 and Furbo Mini. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file /squashfs-root/furbo_img of the component MQTT Client Certificate. Performing manipulation results in hard-coded credentials. The attack may be initiated remotely. The attack's complexity is rated as high. The exploitation appears to be difficult. The firmware versions determined to be affected are Furbo 360 up to FB0035_FW_036 and Furbo Mini up to MC0020_FW_074. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceHard-coded credentials are embedded in the MQTT Client Certificate functionality within the /squashfs-root/furbo_img file on Tomofun Furbo 360 and Furbo Mini pet cameras. These credentials can be extracted by an attacker who has network access to the device, potentially allowing unauthorized access to the MQTT broker and the device's communication channels.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify device modelDetermine if the device is a Tomofun Furbo Mini or Furbo 360 pet camera. Check device labeling, management interface, or API endpoint responses for model identification.Affected if Device is NOT a Furbo Mini or Furbo 360 camera (not affected).
-
Check firmware version for Furbo MiniAccess the device's admin interface or check via API to retrieve the firmware version. Compare the version number to the vulnerable threshold.Affected if Device is a Furbo Mini with firmware version 074 or lower (affected).
-
Check firmware version for Furbo 360Access the device's admin interface or check via API to retrieve the firmware version. Compare the version number to the vulnerable threshold.Affected if Device is a Furbo 360 with firmware version 036 or lower (affected).
-
Verify vulnerable file presenceIf firmware extraction is possible, examine the firmware image for the presence of the file /squashfs-root/furbo_img which contains the hard-coded MQTT credentials.Affected if The file /squashfs-root/furbo_img exists in the firmware and contains embedded credentials (affected).
-
Check MQTT client configurationInspect the device configuration or captured network traffic for MQTT connections. Determine if the device is configured to use client certificate authentication.Affected if MQTT client certificate functionality is enabled and the device connects to an MQTT broker (potentially affected if firmware version is vulnerable).
The device is affected if it is a Furbo Mini (firmware <=074) or Furbo 360 (firmware <=036) with hard-coded credentials embedded in the /squashfs-root/furbo_img file used for MQTT client certificate authentication.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataSince the vendor did not respond to the disclosure, pursue network segmentation to isolate IoT devices, implement firewall rules restricting MQTT traffic, and contact Tomofun support requesting firmware updates that remove hard-coded credentials. Until a patch is available, monitor for unauthorized MQTT connections.
