Description

The following vulnerabilities were reported in a Nessus security scan of pfSense Plus:

CVE-2025-49844
CVE-2025-7709
CVE-2025-62507
CVE-2025-46817

These CVEs are for redis 8.2.1 and sqlite 3.50.2, which are present in pfSense Plus 25.11.1. Whether they have any actionable needs is unknown, but the package versions in the operating system do match vulnerable versions, based on the CVE data.

  • Status changed from New to In Progress
  • Assignee set to Christian McDonald
  • Target version set to 26.03
  • Affected Plus Version set to 25.11.1

The upcoming release of pfSense Plus (26.03) includes updated versions of both redis and sqlite3.

We will need to look deeper to determine if upgrading these packages in older versions of pfSense is justified.

I read through these vulnerabilities and I'm not seeing any obvious threat to pfSense in a typical configuration. Redis, as configured by the ntopng package, only binds to localhost. The FTS5 vulnerability in sqlite3 again would require unauthorized access at minimum in order to perform arbitrary queries.
