Lan Kontroler v3.5: Direct Request
CVE-2025-15587 is a high-severity direct request vulnerability in Lan Kontroler v3.5 from Tinycontrol, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.6 out of 10. It can be exploited from the same local network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version 1.67 as the first without the flaw, so updating Lan Kontroler v3.5 to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.19% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Lan Kontroler v3.5 to 1.67 or a later version.
- Update LK3.9 to 1.75 or a later version.
- Update LK4 to 1.38 or a later version.

Official description
Tinycontrol devices such as tcPDU and LAN Controllers LK3.5, LK3.9 and LK4 allow a low privileged user to read an administrator's password by directly accessing a specific resource inaccessible via a graphical interface. This issue has been fixed in firmware versions: 1.36 (for tcPDU), 1.67 (for LK3.5 - hardware versions: 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8), 1.75 (for LK3.9 - hardware version 3.9) and 1.38 (for LK4 - hardware version 4.0).

The underlying weakness: Direct Request
The web application does not adequately enforce appropriate authorization on all restricted URLs, scripts, or files.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Apply appropriate access control authorizations for each access to all restricted URLs, scripts or files.
- Consider using MVC based frameworks such as Struts.
Timeline
- CVE record published.
- CISA published its SSVC assessment (exploitation: none, automatable: no, technical impact: total).
- Record last changed materially (score, affected products, status or references).
