CVE-2025-27262
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 · uneditedEricsson Indoor Connect 8855 contains a command injection vulnerability which if exploited can result in an escalation of privileges.
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 · moderate confidenceCommand injection vulnerability in Ericsson Indoor Connect 8855 allows an attacker to inject arbitrary commands through insufficient input validation, leading to privilege escalation from the application context to root/system level.
Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

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.
-
Confirm device modelIdentify the Ericsson Indoor Connect 8855 device in your inventory or network. Check device labeling, management interface, or SNMP/Bonjour discovery for the exact model number.Affected if Device is not an Ericsson Indoor Connect 8855 unit.
-
Determine installed firmware versionAccess the device management interface (web UI, CLI, or SNMP) and locate the firmware version information. Compare against the 2025.q2 release.Affected if Firmware version is earlier than 2025.q2 (e.g., 2024.x, 2023.x, or any version without the Q2 2025 patch).
-
Verify management interface accessibilityCheck network exposure of the device management interface (HTTP/HTTPS, SSH, or telnet). Determine if it is reachable from untrusted networks.Affected if Management interface is exposed to untrusted networks without network segmentation.
-
Assess input handling exposureIf you have access to the device, review which user-facing features accept input (web forms, API endpoints, CLI parameters). The vulnerability allows command injection through insufficient input validation.Affected if Any management or configuration feature accepts user-supplied input without sanitization.
You are affected if you are running an Ericsson Indoor Connect 8855 device with firmware version earlier than 2025.q2, and the management interface or any input-handling feature is accessible to potential attackers.

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.
dbcve · scoped2025.q2
Apply vendor-provided firmware patch when available; restrict management interface access to trusted networks and enforce strong authentication to reduce attack surface.
2025.q2 (or later firmware release)
- Identify the current firmware version of the Ericsson Indoor Connect 8855 device
- Download the firmware version 2025.q2 or later from the official Ericsson support portal
- Review the firmware release notes for any specific update instructions
- Apply the firmware update following Ericsson's official documentation for the Indoor Connect 8855
- After updating, verify the device is functioning correctly and the firmware version shows 2025.q2 or later
