CVE-2026-24689
Published: 27 February 2026
Description
An OS command injection vulnerability exists in XWEB Pro version 1.12.1 and prior, enabling an authenticated attacker to achieve remote code execution on the system by injecting malicious input into the devices field of the firmware update apply action.
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
Directly prevents OS command injection by validating and sanitizing malicious input in the devices field during firmware update actions.
Remediates the specific command injection flaw in XWEB Pro firmware update functionality through timely patching.
Enforces least privilege to restrict high-privilege access required to exploit the firmware update vulnerability.
Security SummaryAI
CVE-2026-24689 is an OS command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) affecting XWEB Pro version 1.12.1 and prior. Published on 2026-02-27, the flaw exists in the firmware update apply action, where malicious input injected into the devices field enables remote code execution on the system. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.0 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
An authenticated attacker with high privileges can exploit this issue over the network, though it requires high attack complexity and no user interaction. Exploitation allows the attacker to achieve remote code execution, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability with changed scope due to the high-impact vector.
CISA ICS Advisory ICSA-26-057-10, the associated CSAF JSON file on GitHub, and the vendor's system software update page on Copeland's webapps site provide further details on the vulnerability and mitigation guidance.
