AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
Both attack paths require either on-path MITM positioning or replay-window guessing, justifying AC:H; integrity-only impact as ChaCha20 confidentiality is unbroken.

4DescriptionCVE.org
After dispatching a decrypt operation to OCF and receiving the result, the wg(4) driver failed to check whether the MAC verification step succeeded. The driver thus silently accepted packets with an invalid Poly1305 authentication tag.
A remote attacker who can send UDP packets to a WireGuard endpoint, and who can guess the bounds of the receiver's replay window, can inject forged or modified transport data packets into the tunnel.
A remote attacker who can intercept WireGuard packets bound for a FreeBSD host can modify the ciphertext and authenticated data without detection by the receiver.
AnalysisAI
FreeBSD's wg(4) WireGuard kernel driver silently accepts packets bearing invalid Poly1305 authentication tags, completely defeating WireGuard's cryptographic integrity guarantee on affected FreeBSD versions. The driver dispatches decrypt operations to the OpenCrypto Framework (OCF) but never checks the returned MAC verification result, meaning tampered or forged ciphertext passes through as legitimate plaintext. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The target must be a FreeBSD host running the wg(4) WireGuard driver at an unpatched version (14.4-RELEASE before p8, 15.0-RELEASE before p12, or 15.1-RELEASE before p2) with at least one active WireGuard interface. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The official CVSS 7.5 High score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N) reflects a network-accessible, unauthenticated integrity compromise, but AC:L overstates the ease of exploitation in practice. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Apply FreeBSD patches from the official security advisory FreeBSD-SA-26:52.if_wg at https://security.freebsd.org/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-26:52.if_wg.asc: upgrade to FreeBSD 14.4-RELEASE-p8, FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE-p12, or FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p2 respectively. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
