Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: High: A successful attack depends on conditions beyond the attacker's control. That is, a successful attack cannot be accomplished at will, but requires the attacker to invest in some measurable amount of effort in preparation or execution against the vulnerable component before a successful attack can be expected. For example, a successful attack may require an attacker to: gather knowledge about the environment in which the vulnerable target/component exists; prepare the target environment to improve exploit reliability; or inject themselves into the logical network path between the target and the resource requested by the victim in order to read and/or modify network communications (e.g., a man in the middle attack).
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 1 Dec 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-25.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

1. Immediately segment networks to isolate DIRIS Digiware M-70 devices from general IT and internet-facing networks, limiting exposure to trusted personnel only. 2. Deploy encrypted tunnels such as VPNs or IPsec to protect communications with the device, preventing sniffing of cleartext traffic. 3. Monitor network traffic for unusual HTTP requests or unexpected data flows involving the device. 4. Restrict physical and logical access to the device and its management interfaces. 5. Engage with Socomec support to inquire about firmware updates or patches addressing this vulnerability. 6. Implement strict access control lists (ACLs) on network devices to limit which hosts can communicate with the DIRIS Digiware M-70. 7. Conduct regular security assessments of industrial control systems to identify and remediate similar cleartext transmission issues. 8. Educate operational technology teams about the risks of unencrypted communications and the importance of secure protocols.

Description

A cleartext transmission vulnerability exists in the WEBVIEW-M functionality of Socomec DIRIS Digiware M-70 1.6.9. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to a disclosure of sensitive information. An attacker can sniff network traffic to trigger this vulnerability.

Impact

For European organizations, particularly those in energy, manufacturing, and critical infrastructure sectors, this vulnerability poses a risk of sensitive data exposure. The disclosure of operational or configuration information could aid attackers in reconnaissance or subsequent attacks on industrial control systems. Although the vulnerability does not allow direct system compromise or disruption, leaked information could facilitate targeted attacks or espionage. Organizations relying on Socomec DIRIS Digiware M-70 devices may face compliance issues with GDPR and other data protection regulations if sensitive data is exposed. The impact is heightened in environments where network segmentation is weak or where devices are accessible from less secure network segments. Confidentiality breaches could undermine trust in operational technology security and potentially lead to financial or reputational damage.

CWE-319Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighOWASP Top 10 A04:2025: Cryptographic Failures (opens in a new tab)
The product transmits sensitive or security-critical data in cleartext in a communication channel that can be sniffed by unauthorized actors.
Architecture and Design
Before transmitting, encrypt the data using reliable, confidentiality-protecting cryptographic protocols.
Implementation
When using web applications with SSL, use SSL for the entire session from login to logout, not just for the initial login page.
Implementation
When designing hardware platforms, ensure that approved encryption algorithms (such as those recommended by NIST) protect paths from security critical data to trusted user applications.
