CVE-2026-25105
Published: 27 February 2026
Description
Adversaries may abuse command and script interpreters to execute commands, scripts, or binaries.
Security Summary
CVE-2026-25105 is an OS command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) affecting XWEB Pro version 1.12.1 and prior. The flaw resides in the Modbus command tool accessible via the debug route, where insufficient input validation allows malicious payloads to be injected into parameters, leading to arbitrary operating system command execution. 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), indicating high severity due to its potential for complete system compromise despite requiring high privileges and elevated attack complexity.
An authenticated attacker with high-level privileges (PR:H) can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network (AV:N) without user interaction (UI:N). By crafting and submitting malicious input to the affected Modbus command tool parameters in the debug route, the attacker achieves remote code execution (RCE) on the underlying system, potentially granting full control including data exfiltration, modification, or disruption (high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability with changed scope).
