Device resets via malformed Zigbee packet
Published Nov 14, 2022 · Updated Apr 30, 2025
Buffer-boundary errors in Silicon Labs EmberZNet 1.0.0 through 7.0.0 allow physically proximate attackers to reset Zigbee devices. The stack processes a malformed Zigbee packet without enforcing a memory-buffer boundary, overflows the buffer, and reaches an assertion. No privileges or user interaction are required; the assertion interrupts availability by resetting the affected device, with no reported confidentiality or integrity effect.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=1.0.0 <=7.0.0
