CVE-2025-13442 is a remote command injection vulnerability affecting the UTT 进取 750W device firmware versions up to 3.2.2-191225. The vulnerability resides in the system function handling the /goform/formPdbUpConfig endpoint, specifically in the processing of the policyNames parameter. Improper input validation allows an attacker to inject arbitrary system commands, which the device executes with the privileges of the affected service. The attack vector is network accessible with no authentication or user interaction required, making exploitation straightforward. The vulnerability was publicly disclosed on November 20, 2025, with exploit code available, although no known active exploitation has been reported yet. The vendor was contacted but did not respond or provide a patch, leaving devices exposed. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P) indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction needed, and partial impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This vulnerability could allow attackers to gain control over affected devices, potentially leading to data breaches, device manipulation, or denial of service. Given the device's likely use in industrial or network infrastructure contexts, the impact could be significant if exploited.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-13442 can be substantial, particularly for those relying on UTT 进取 750W devices in operational technology (OT), industrial control systems (ICS), or critical network infrastructure. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized command execution, enabling attackers to disrupt device functionality, exfiltrate sensitive data, or pivot within internal networks. This could result in operational downtime, safety hazards, intellectual property loss, and reputational damage. The lack of authentication and ease of exploitation increase the likelihood of attacks, especially in environments with exposed management interfaces or insufficient network segmentation. The absence of vendor patches exacerbates the risk, forcing organizations to rely on compensating controls. European sectors such as manufacturing, energy, and telecommunications that may deploy these devices are particularly vulnerable. Additionally, the public availability of exploit code lowers the barrier for threat actors, including cybercriminals and nation-state groups, to leverage this vulnerability for espionage or sabotage.

Given the absence of an official patch, European organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. First, restrict network access to the vulnerable device's management interfaces using firewalls, VPNs, or network segmentation to limit exposure to trusted administrators only. Disable or block the /goform/formPdbUpConfig endpoint if feasible, or apply web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block malicious payloads targeting the policyNames parameter. Conduct thorough network monitoring and intrusion detection to identify anomalous command injection attempts or unusual device behavior. Regularly audit device firmware versions and configurations to identify affected units. If possible, replace vulnerable devices with alternatives from vendors with active security support. Establish incident response plans specific to OT/ICS environments to quickly contain potential compromises. Engage with UTT or third-party security researchers for potential unofficial patches or mitigations. Finally, educate relevant personnel about the risks and signs of exploitation to enhance organizational readiness.
