CVE-2025-64124
Published: 03 January 2026
Description
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability in Nuvation Energy Multi-Stack Controller (MSC) allows OS Command Injection.This issue affects Multi-Stack Controller (MSC): before 2.5.1.
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
Directly mitigates OS command injection by requiring validation of information inputs to neutralize special elements used in OS commands.
Ensures timely patching of the specific flaw in MSC versions before 2.5.1, preventing exploitation of the command injection vulnerability.
Enforces restrictions on information inputs at system interfaces, limiting opportunities for attackers to inject malicious OS commands.
Security SummaryAI
CVE-2025-64124 is an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command, classified as an OS Command Injection vulnerability (CWE-78), affecting Nuvation Energy's Multi-Stack Controller (MSC) software in versions before 2.5.1. Published on 2026-01-03, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for significant impact.
The vulnerability enables exploitation over the network by attackers with low privileges (PR:L), requiring low attack complexity and no user interaction. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary OS command injection, granting high-level impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, which could result in full system compromise on the affected MSC device.
For mitigation guidance, security practitioners should consult advisories such as the Dragos community advisory at https://www.dragos.com/community/advisories/CVE-2025-64119. Updating to Multi-Stack Controller version 2.5.1 or later addresses the issue.
