| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to control a device that has ALREADY joined the target Zigbee network (the messages 'must come from a device that has already joined the network'), so prior network membership/authentication is a hard prerequisite - this is reflected in PR:L. The target must implement and support the Zigbee Door Lock cluster; devices without that cluster are not impacted. The trigger is a Door Lock command carrying a malformed or out-of-range Door Lock user identifier, which forces the out-of-bounds table read. Affected build must be EmberZNet 9.0.2 or earlier. Limiting factors that reduce realistic risk: no remote unauthenticated path (must be a joined device), impact is confined to a process crash/DoS with no code execution and no data disclosure back to the attacker, and only Door-Lock-capable devices are in scope. |
| Impact | The vendor CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) with impact limited to VA:H (availability only; VC:N/VI:N/VA:H) scores 7.1 and accurately reflects a network-reachable but membership-gated denial of service with no confidentiality or integrity impact. The key limiting factor is PR:L: the malicious messages 'must come from a device that has already joined the network,' so an attacker first needs to be an authenticated Zigbee network participant rather than an arbitrary remote host, which substantially narrows the realistic threat to compromised/rogue joined devices. There is no EPSS value, no KEV listing, and no POC in the provided data, so real-world exploitation pressure appears low and any exploitation would be targeted rather than opportunistic. Note a conflict in the source data: the tags list 'Information Disclosure' and 'Buffer Overflow', but the description explicitly states no information leakage was observed and the CVSS sets VC:N - treat this as a pure availability/crash issue, not an info-disclosure or memory-corruption RCE, unless the vendor advisory states otherwise. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who has compromised or spoofed a device already joined to the Zigbee network sends a crafted Door Lock command containing an out-of-range user identifier to a target device that supports the Door Lock cluster. The malformed identifier causes an out-of-bounds table read in EmberZNet that terminates the stack process, knocking the lock/controller offline (a crash/DoS). No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis, and the low attack complexity means a joined attacker can repeat the crash to sustain the outage. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jun 25, 2026
Denial of service in Silicon Labs EmberZNet Zigbee stack (v9.0.2 and earlier) lets an already-joined network device crash the target by sending Door Lock cluster messages containing malformed or out-of-range user identifiers, which trigger an out-of-bounds table read (CWE-125) that terminates the process. Only devices that implement the Door Lock cluster are affected, and no data is leaked back to the sender. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not in CISA KEV.
RemediationAI
Upgrade the EmberZNet stack to the vendor-patched release: a patch is available from Silicon Labs (Patch available per vendor advisory; the exact fixed version is not enumerated in the provided data, so confirm the target version against the advisory at https://siliconlabs.lightning.force.com/sfc/servlet.shepherd/document/download/069Vm00000pEGPQIA4?operationContext=S1 and the patched sources at https://github.com/SiliconLabsSoftware/sisdk-release/, then rebuild and reflash affected device firmware). Because this is firmware-embedded, plan an OTA or physical update campaign for all devices running 9.0.2 or earlier that expose the Door Lock cluster. Where immediate patching is impractical, compensating controls are limited but include: tightening Zigbee network admission (strict install-code/link-key provisioning and disabling open joining) to prevent rogue devices from joining and reaching the cluster - trade-off is added commissioning friction; and, where a device does not actually need Door Lock functionality, disabling or not advertising the Door Lock cluster removes the attack surface - trade-off is loss of that lock feature. Monitoring for unexpected stack restarts/crash loops can help detect attempts.

Technical ContextAI · show details
EmberZNet is Silicon Labs' widely embedded Zigbee protocol stack, shipped in IoT and smart-home device firmware (gateways, hubs, and Zigbee end devices). The flaw lives in the Zigbee Cluster Library (ZCL) Door Lock cluster handling: a Door Lock 'user identifier' supplied in a received command is used to index an internal user table without adequate bounds validation. When the identifier is malformed or out of range, the code performs an out-of-bounds read against that table (CWE-125, classic out-of-bounds read), and the resulting fault terminates the process running the stack. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:silicon_labs:emberznet:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms the affected product is the EmberZNet application/SDK component.

DescriptionCVE.org
In EmberZNet v9.0.2 and earlier, malformed or out-of-range Door Lock user identifiers can trigger out-of-bounds table reads and terminate the process. These messages must come from a device that has already joined the network, and no information leakage back to the sender was observed. Only devices supporting the Door Lock cluster may be impacted.
Executive ViewAI
Silicon Labs EmberZNet Zigbee-based physical access control systems face a critical operational risk from denial of service attacks. Devices using the Door Lock cluster can be remotely disabled by any attacker with network access to the Zigbee network, disrupting facility access operations and potentially creating security gaps during recovery. A vendor patch is available and deployment should be prioritized.
Apply vendor patch.

Attack Technique
A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
