CVE-2025-20014
CVE-2025-20014: mySCADA myPRO arbitrary command execution vulnerability. This security flaw arises from improper neutralization of POST requests containing version data sent to a specific port, potentially enabling attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the vulnerable system. The low SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) of 44 suggests the vulnerability is not currently deemed critical. Despite the low SVRS, organizations utilizing mySCADA myPRO should monitor the vulnerability closely. Successful exploitation could lead to complete system compromise, data breaches, and operational disruption. The presence of the "In The Wild" tag indicates potential active exploitation, warranting heightened vigilance. While the CVSS score is 0, the ability to execute arbitrary commands makes addressing this vulnerability important to mitigate potential risks.
Description
CVE-2025-20014 is a command injection vulnerability in mySCADA myPRO. It arises from the improper neutralization of POST requests containing version information sent to a specific port, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the affected system. Despite the CVSS score of 0, the 'In The Wild' tag signifies active exploitation, and although the SVRS is 30, this still highlights a potential risk that should be monitored given its active exploitation.
Key Insights
- Command Injection: The core of the vulnerability is command injection (CWE-78). This allows attackers to potentially run arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system with the privileges of the mySCADA myPRO application, leading to system compromise.
- Active Exploitation: The "In The Wild" tag is a critical indicator. This means that the vulnerability is being actively exploited by hackers, necessitating immediate investigation and action.
- Vendor Application: mySCADA myPRO is the targeted application, so systems utilizing this application are at high risk.
- POST Request Vector: The vulnerability is triggered through malicious POST requests sent to a specific port. This knowledge is crucial for detection and mitigation efforts.
Mitigation Strategies
- Vendor Patching: Immediately apply any available security patches or updates provided by mySCADA for the myPRO product to address the vulnerability. Prioritize this task due to active exploitation.
- Network Segmentation and Access Control: Implement network segmentation to isolate the mySCADA myPRO system from critical network segments. Restrict access to the vulnerable port to only authorized users and systems using strict access control lists (ACLs) and firewall rules.
- Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS): Deploy and configure IDS/IPS solutions to monitor network traffic for malicious POST requests targeting the specific port and containing potentially harmful payloads. Implement rules that detect and block command injection attempts.
- Web Application Firewall (WAF): Implement a WAF to filter and inspect HTTP traffic to the mySCADA myPRO application. Configure the WAF with rules that block suspicious POST requests and prevent command injection attacks.
