Attack Vector: Network
Attack Complexity: Low
Privileges Required: None
User Interaction: None
Scope: Unchanged
Confidentiality: High
Integrity: None
Availability: None

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

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, 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: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
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: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 20 Aug 2025
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 26 Oct 2026.

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 or the CVSS exploit maturity 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 this SSRF vulnerability, European organizations should immediately assess their deployment of Schneider Electric EcoStruxure™ PME and identify affected versions. In the interim, network-level controls should be enforced to restrict outbound HTTP requests from PME servers to only trusted domains and IP addresses, effectively limiting the ability to reach malicious URLs. Implement strict input validation and URL filtering on the PME application if customization is possible. Additionally, network segmentation should isolate PME systems from the internet and sensitive internal networks to reduce exposure. Monitoring and logging of outbound requests from PME servers should be enhanced to detect anomalous or unauthorized access attempts. Organizations should also review access controls and ensure that PME management interfaces are not publicly accessible. Finally, incorporate this vulnerability into incident response plans and conduct security awareness training for operational technology (OT) teams to recognize potential exploitation signs.

Description

CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists that could cause unauthorized access to sensitive data when an attacker configures the application to access a malicious url.

Impact

For European organizations, especially those in critical infrastructure sectors such as energy, manufacturing, and utilities that rely on Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure™ PME for power monitoring and management, this vulnerability poses a serious risk. Unauthorized access to sensitive operational data could lead to exposure of network topology, system configurations, or operational metrics, which could be leveraged for further attacks or industrial espionage. Given the role of PME in monitoring power systems, attackers could gain insights into energy consumption patterns or system statuses, potentially disrupting operational confidentiality. While the vulnerability does not directly impact system integrity or availability, the confidentiality breach alone can have regulatory and operational consequences, including violations of GDPR if personal or sensitive data is involved. The lack of required authentication and user interaction increases the risk of automated exploitation attempts, which could be particularly concerning in environments with internet-facing PME instances or insufficient network segmentation.
