CVE-2025-10955 is a Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability categorized under CWE-79, found in Netcad Software Inc.'s Netigma product, specifically version 6.3.5. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, where HTTP query strings are not adequately sanitized before being reflected in the web interface. This allows attackers to craft malicious URLs containing executable scripts that, when visited by a user, execute in the context of the victim's browser session. The CVSS v3.1 score is 6.1 (medium severity), with an attack vector of network (remote), low attack complexity, no privileges required, but requiring user interaction. The scope is changed, indicating that the vulnerability can affect resources beyond the initially vulnerable component. The impact affects confidentiality and integrity but not availability. Potential consequences include session hijacking, defacement, or redirection to malicious sites. No patches or exploits are currently publicly available, but the vulnerability is published and should be addressed promptly. The vulnerability affects Netigma version 6.3.5 before 6.3.5 V8, indicating that later versions may have remediated the issue. Since Netigma is used for geospatial and infrastructure management, exploitation could have operational impacts if attackers manipulate displayed data or steal session information.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-10955 can be significant, especially for entities relying on Netigma for critical infrastructure, urban planning, or geospatial data management. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to user sessions, enabling attackers to impersonate legitimate users and potentially manipulate sensitive spatial data or operational dashboards. This could result in misinformation, disruption of decision-making processes, or leakage of confidential information. While the vulnerability does not directly affect system availability, the integrity and confidentiality breaches could undermine trust in affected systems and lead to regulatory compliance issues under GDPR if personal data is exposed. Organizations in sectors such as utilities, transportation, and government agencies are particularly at risk due to their reliance on accurate geospatial information and the strategic importance of their data.

To mitigate CVE-2025-10955, organizations should first verify if they are running Netigma version 6.3.5 or earlier versions before 6.3.5 V8 and plan for an upgrade to a patched version once available. In the absence of an official patch, implement strict input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied data, especially HTTP query parameters, to neutralize potentially malicious scripts. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts in browsers. Educate users to avoid clicking on suspicious links and consider deploying web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block XSS attack patterns targeting Netigma endpoints. Regularly monitor logs for unusual activity indicative of attempted XSS exploitation. Coordinate with Netcad Software Inc. for updates and security advisories. Finally, conduct security testing and code reviews focusing on input handling in web components to prevent similar vulnerabilities.
