QNAP disclosed fixes for two vulnerabilities in the QHora-322 router after public advisories from Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative linked the bugs to Pwn2Own research by Bongeun Koo and Evangelos Daravigkas of Team DDOS. One flaw, CVE-2025-62845 (ZDI-26-240), affects the qvpn_db_mgr endpoint and allows attackers to bypass QBelt VPN authentication through improper neutralization of escape sequences in the role_type parameter. The issue was rated CVSS 6.3.
A second flaw, CVE-2025-62846 (ZDI-26-241), also in qvpn_db_mgr, stems from improper validation of user input used to build SQL queries, creating a username SQL injection condition that can lead to remote code execution as root. ZDI said exploitation nominally requires authentication, but the product's authentication mechanism can be bypassed, making the bugs especially dangerous when chained. QNAP has released updates to remediate the vulnerabilities, and the RCE issue was assigned a CVSS 8.8 severity score.
