After taking refined analysis on the Optical Observations (Wu et al. GCN 37292), we fixed a bug in the flux calibration pipeline. We update the afterglow magnitude of GRB 240825A as following, 
-----------------------------------------------------------
 Filter    (t-T0) sec          mag  +/- mag_error 
  g       65  -> 2555     13.73 +/- 0.02 -> 18.58 +/- 0.28 
  r       206 -> 2088     15.11 +/- 0.02 -> 17.93 +/- 0.15 
  i       294 -> 2162     15.14 +/- 0.02 -> 17.68 +/- 0.15

The magnitudes were calibrated using nearby PS1 stars.  

We apologize for any confusion caused.
