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: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
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: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the impacted component.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: High: There is total loss of availability, resulting in the attacker being able to fully deny access to resources in the impacted component; this loss is either sustained (while the attacker continues to deliver the attack) or persistent (the condition persists even after the attack has completed). Alternatively, the attacker has the ability to deny some availability, but the loss of availability presents a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component (e.g., the attacker cannot disrupt existing connections, but can prevent new connections; the attacker can repeatedly exploit a vulnerability that, in each instance of a successful attack, leaks a only small amount of memory, but after repeated exploitation causes a service to become completely unavailable).

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 2 Apr 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 26 Oct 2026.

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 or the CVSS exploit maturity 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

Implement network segmentation and restrict access to devices running the vulnerable HTTP server to trusted networks only.
Deploy firewall rules or intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to detect and block malformed HTTP requests targeting the vulnerable component.
Monitor network traffic for unusual or malformed HTTP packets that could indicate exploitation attempts.
Coordinate with device manufacturers and STMicroelectronics for timely updates and patches once available.
Where possible, disable or limit the HTTP server functionality on embedded devices if not required for operation.
Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing on embedded systems to identify exposure.
Employ redundancy and failover mechanisms in critical systems to mitigate the impact of potential denial of service events.

Description

A denial of service vulnerability exists in the NetX Component HTTP server functionality of STMicroelectronics X-CUBE-AZRTOS-WL 2.0.0. A specially crafted network packet can lead to denial of service. An attacker can send a malicious packet to trigger this vulnerability.This vulnerability affects X-CUBE-AZRTOS-F7 NetX Duo Web Component HTTP server v 1.1.0. This HTTP server implementation is contained in this file - x-cube-azrtos-f7\Middlewares\ST\netxduo\addons\web\nx_web_http_server.c

Impact

For European organizations, the primary impact is service disruption due to denial of service conditions in embedded devices running the vulnerable HTTP server component. This can affect industrial automation systems, automotive control units, and IoT devices that rely on STMicroelectronics X-CUBE-AZRTOS middleware. Disruptions could lead to operational downtime, safety risks in critical infrastructure, and potential cascading effects in manufacturing or transportation sectors. Since the vulnerability does not expose data or allow code execution, the risk to confidentiality and integrity is low. However, availability impacts in critical systems can have significant operational and financial consequences. The lack of patches increases the window of exposure, and attackers could exploit this vulnerability to cause targeted outages or as part of multi-stage attacks against industrial environments.

CWE-459Incomplete Cleanup (opens in a new tab)
Base weakness
The product does not properly "clean up" and remove temporary or supporting resources after they have been used.
Architecture and Design · Implementation
Temporary files and other supporting resources should be deleted/released immediately after they are no longer needed.
From MITRE CWE, MITRE CAPEC and OWASP (Top 10, OpenCRE).
