CVE-2025-10955 is a Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability classified under CWE-79, found in Netcad Software Inc.'s Netigma product. The flaw stems from improper neutralization of user-supplied input during web page generation, specifically through HTTP query strings. This allows an attacker to inject malicious JavaScript code into web pages viewed by other users. When a victim accesses a crafted URL containing the malicious payload, the script executes in their browser context, potentially compromising confidentiality and integrity by stealing session cookies, redirecting users, or performing actions on their behalf. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.1, indicating medium severity, with an attack vector of network (remote), low attack complexity, no privileges required, but requiring user interaction. The scope is changed, meaning the vulnerability affects resources beyond the initially vulnerable component. No known exploits have been reported in the wild, and no patches are currently linked, suggesting that remediation may be pending or in development. The affected versions include all up to 28102025, which may indicate a build or version identifier rather than a conventional version number. The vulnerability is particularly relevant for organizations exposing Netigma web interfaces to external users or partners, as attackers could leverage social engineering to induce victims to click malicious links. The improper input handling highlights a need for robust input validation and output encoding in the affected software.

For European organizations, this XSS vulnerability poses risks primarily to confidentiality and integrity of user sessions and data. Attackers exploiting this flaw can hijack user sessions, steal sensitive information, or perform unauthorized actions within the context of the victim's privileges. This can lead to data breaches, unauthorized access to internal systems, or reputational damage. Organizations in sectors such as government, critical infrastructure, and enterprises using Netigma for geospatial or infrastructure management may face operational disruptions or targeted attacks. Since the vulnerability requires user interaction, phishing or social engineering campaigns could be used to exploit it. The medium severity score reflects moderate impact potential; however, the changed scope indicates that the vulnerability could affect multiple components or users beyond the initially targeted system. The lack of known exploits in the wild reduces immediate risk but should not lead to complacency. European entities with public-facing Netigma deployments or integrated systems should prioritize assessment and mitigation to prevent exploitation.

1. Implement strict input validation on all HTTP query string parameters to ensure only expected data types and formats are accepted. 2. Apply proper output encoding (e.g., HTML entity encoding) on all user-supplied data before rendering it in web pages to prevent script execution. 3. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of untrusted scripts in browsers. 4. Educate users and administrators about the risks of clicking unknown or suspicious links to reduce successful social engineering attempts. 5. Monitor web application logs for unusual query string patterns or repeated attempts to inject scripts. 6. Coordinate with Netcad Software Inc. to obtain and apply official patches or updates addressing this vulnerability once released. 7. Conduct security testing, including automated and manual penetration tests, focusing on input handling and XSS vectors in Netigma deployments. 8. Use web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules tuned to detect and block XSS payloads targeting Netigma. 9. Segment and restrict access to Netigma interfaces to trusted networks or VPN users where feasible. 10. Maintain up-to-date backups and incident response plans to quickly recover from potential exploitation.
