Lapwing_Linux: Out-of-bounds Read

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2025-13735 is a high-severity out-of-bounds read vulnerability in Lapwing_Linux from ASR, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.4 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version 2025/11/26 as the first without the flaw, so updating Lapwing_Linux to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.21% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
