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

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, 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: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker requires privileges that provide basic capabilities that are typically limited to settings and resources owned by a single low-privileged user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges has the ability to access only non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: Passive: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires limited interaction by the targeted user with the vulnerable system and the attacker’s payload. These interactions would be considered involuntary and do not require that the user actively subvert protections built into the vulnerable system.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 11 Feb 2026
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

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 2026-10-26.

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.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2025-13650, organizations should implement multiple layers of defense: 1) Apply strict input validation on the 'Surname' parameter and all user inputs to reject or sanitize potentially malicious characters and scripts. 2) Employ context-aware output encoding/escaping to neutralize any injected scripts before rendering in the browser. 3) Implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts and reduce the impact of XSS payloads. 4) Restrict access to the 'Create Account' operation endpoint via network controls or authentication mechanisms if possible, to reduce exposure. 5) Educate users about phishing and social engineering risks to minimize successful triggering of malicious payloads. 6) Monitor web application logs for suspicious input patterns indicative of attempted exploitation. 7) Engage with Microcom for patches or updates and apply them promptly once available. 8) Consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with rules targeting XSS payload signatures specific to this vulnerability. These measures combined will reduce the likelihood and impact of exploitation beyond generic advice.

Description

An attacker with access to the web application ZeusWeb of the provider Microcom (in this case, registration is not necessary, but the action must be performed) who has the vulnerable software could introduce arbitrary JavaScript by injecting an XSS payload into the ‘Surname’ parameter of the ‘Create Account’ operation at the URL: https://zeus.microcom.es:4040/index.html?zeus6=true . This issue affects ZeusWeb: 6.1.31.

Impact

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-13650 can be significant in environments where ZeusWeb 6.1.31 is deployed, especially in sectors handling sensitive user data or critical web services. Successful exploitation could lead to session hijacking, credential theft, or unauthorized actions performed under the victim's identity, undermining user trust and potentially leading to data breaches. The vulnerability's requirement for user interaction limits mass exploitation but targeted phishing or social engineering campaigns could be effective. Given the web-based nature of the vulnerability, organizations with public-facing ZeusWeb instances are at higher risk. The medium CVSS score reflects moderate risk, but the actual impact depends on the deployment context and the sensitivity of the data processed. European regulatory frameworks such as GDPR impose strict requirements on data protection, and exploitation leading to data leakage could result in regulatory penalties and reputational damage. Additionally, sectors like finance, healthcare, and government are particularly sensitive to XSS attacks due to the potential for privilege escalation and data manipulation.

Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Implementation · Architecture and Design
Understand the context in which your data will be used and the encoding that will be expected. This is especially important when transmitting data between different components, or when generating outputs that can contain multiple encodings at the same time, such as web pages or multi-part mail messages.
