CVE-2025-9138

A vulnerability was found in Scada-LTS 2.7.8.1. Affected is an unknown function of the file pointHierarchy/new/. Performing manipulation of the argument Title results in cross site scripting. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The vendor explains: "[T]he risks of indicated vulnerabilities seem to be minimal as all scenarios likely require admin permissions. Moreover, regardless our team fixes those vulnerabilities - the overall risk change to the user due to malicious admin actions will not be lower. An admin user - by definition - has full control over HTML and JS code that is delivered to users in regular synoptic panels. In other words - due to the design of the system it is not possible to limit the admin user to attack the users."

Summary
  • (es) Se encontró una vulnerabilidad en Scada-LTS 2.7.8.1. La función afectada es desconocida en el archivo pointHierarchy/new/. La manipulación del argumento Title provoca ataques de cross site scripting. El ataque puede ejecutarse en remoto. Se ha hecho público el exploit y puede que sea utilizado. El proveedor explica: «Los riesgos de las vulnerabilidades indicadas parecen ser mínimos, ya que es probable que todos los escenarios requieran permisos de administrador. Además, independientemente de que nuestro equipo corrija dichas vulnerabilidades, el riesgo general para el usuario debido a acciones maliciosas de administrador no disminuirá. Un usuario administrador, por definición, tiene control total sobre el código HTML y JS que se entrega a los usuarios en paneles sinópticos regulares. En otras palabras, debido al diseño del sistema, no es posible limitar al usuario administrador a atacar a los usuarios».
