CVE-2025-10681 is a high-severity Gardyn issue where storage credentials are hardcoded in the mobile app and device firmware. CISA’s advisory says the credentials do not adequately limit end-user permissions and do not expire in a reasonable time, which may allow unauthorized access to production storage containers.

Who should care

Gardyn Home and Studio users, administrators supporting the Gardyn mobile app or connected devices, and defenders responsible for firmware/app update management and cloud credential hygiene.

Technical summary

According to CISA advisory ICSA-26-055-03, the vulnerable design embeds storage credentials in the Gardyn mobile app and firmware. The advisory says those credentials are overly permissive and long-lived, creating a path to unauthorized access to production storage containers. CISA’s update on 2026-04-02 added the vulnerability details and remediation guidance, including upgrading the Gardyn mobile app and updating Home/Studio firmware to master.622 or later.

Defensive priority

High — prioritize patching and version verification because exposed, long-lived credentials can be used to reach production storage resources.

Recommended defensive actions

  • Update the Gardyn mobile application to the latest supported version.
  • Upgrade Gardyn Home Kit and Studio devices to firmware master.622 or later.
  • Verify the current app and firmware versions in the Gardyn app.
  • Keep affected devices connected to the internet so firmware updates can download automatically.
  • Follow Gardyn’s published security guidance and contact support if updates do not apply cleanly.
