Scope: Unchanged
Confidentiality: None
Integrity: High
Availability: None

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

Attack Vector: Adjacent: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack, but the attack is limited at the protocol level to a logically adjacent topology. This can mean an attack must be launched from the same shared physical (e.g., Bluetooth or IEEE 802.11) or logical (e.g., local IP subnet) network, or from within a secure or otherwise limited administrative domain (e.g., MPLS, secure VPN to an administrative network zone).
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: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

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.

What to do

Upgrade AXIS Camera Station Pro to 6.14.

AI-suggested

1. Implement strict network segmentation to isolate AXIS Camera Station Pro systems from general user networks, limiting adjacent network access to trusted administrators only. 2. Review and tighten user role assignments and permissions within the AXIS Camera Station Pro environment to ensure least privilege principles are enforced. 3. Monitor logs and audit trails for unusual modification or deletion activities related to data objects managed by the system. 4. Employ network-level access controls such as VLANs and firewall rules to restrict access to the camera management system. 5. If you cannot patch yet, consider deploying compensating controls such as multi-factor authentication for all users with modification privileges and enhanced monitoring for insider threat detection. 6. Engage with Axis Communications for updates on patch availability and apply them promptly once released. 7. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on access control mechanisms within the surveillance infrastructure.

Description

CVE-2025-12063 is an authorization bypass vulnerability in Axis Communications AB's AXIS Camera Station Pro version 6. It allows a non-admin user to modify or remove certain data objects without proper permissions due to an insecure direct object reference (CWE-639). The vulnerability requires low privileges and no user interaction but can only be exploited remotely with adjacent network access. While it does not impact confidentiality or availability, it can cause integrity loss by unauthorized modification of data. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, and no patches have been published yet. European organizations using AXIS Camera Station Pro version 6 should be cautious, especially those with extensive physical security deployments. Mitigation involves strict access control reviews, network segmentation, and monitoring for suspicious activities. Countries with high adoption of Axis products and critical infrastructure reliance on video surveillance, such as Germany, France, and the UK, are most likely affected. The CVSS score is 5.7, indicating a medium severity level.

Impact

For European organizations, the impact centers on the potential unauthorized modification or deletion of surveillance data or configuration objects within AXIS Camera Station Pro. This could undermine physical security operations, tamper with evidence, or disrupt incident response processes. Organizations in sectors such as transportation, government, critical infrastructure, and large enterprises relying on Axis video surveillance systems are at heightened risk. The integrity compromise could lead to undetected security breaches or false security alerts. Since the vulnerability requires adjacent network access and low privileges, insider threats or attackers who gain limited network access could exploit it. The absence of confidentiality and availability impact reduces the risk of data leakage or system downtime but does not diminish the importance of maintaining data integrity in security systems.

Summary

CVE-2025-12063 is a medium severity vulnerability identified in Axis Communications AB's AXIS Camera Station Pro, specifically version 6. The root cause is an insecure direct object reference (IDOR), classified under CWE-639, which allows a non-administrative user to bypass authorization controls. This flaw enables such users to modify or delete certain data objects that should be restricted to administrators, thereby compromising data integrity. The vulnerability does not affect confidentiality or availability but poses a risk to the integrity of the system's data. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N) indicates that the attack requires adjacent network access (e.g., local network), low attack complexity, and low privileges but no user interaction. The scope remains unchanged, meaning the impact is confined to the vulnerable component. No public exploits or patches are currently available, which suggests that organizations must rely on compensating controls until a patch is released. The vulnerability is particularly concerning for environments where AXIS Camera Station Pro is used to manage critical video surveillance infrastructure, as unauthorized data modification could disrupt security monitoring or forensic evidence integrity.

The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
Architecture and Design
For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.
Architecture and Design · Implementation
Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.
Architecture and Design
Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.
