Integrity: Low
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: 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: Required: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to take some action before the vulnerability can be exploited.
Scope: Changed: An exploited vulnerability can affect resources beyond the security scope managed by the security authority of the vulnerable component. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are different and managed by different security authorities.
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 impacted component.
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 on the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.

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 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

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2025-60983, organizations should immediately implement strict input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied data in the 'Search For Customers Information' endpoints. Employ context-aware encoding techniques to neutralize malicious scripts before rendering in the browser. Use Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts. Conduct thorough code reviews and penetration testing focused on XSS vulnerabilities. If possible, isolate or disable vulnerable endpoints until a vendor patch is available. Educate users and staff about the risks of clicking suspicious links and reporting anomalies. Monitor web application logs for unusual input patterns indicative of exploitation attempts. Engage with the vendor for timely patches or workarounds and apply them as soon as they are released. Consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block reflected XSS payloads targeting the affected endpoints. Finally, maintain an incident response plan tailored to web application attacks to quickly address any exploitation.

Description

Reflected Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Rubikon Banking Solution 4.0.3 in the "Search For Customers Information" endpoints.

Impact

For European organizations, especially financial institutions using Rubikon Banking Solution 4.0.3, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to customer information, financial fraud, and erosion of customer trust. The reflected XSS can be used to steal session cookies or credentials, enabling attackers to impersonate legitimate users and perform unauthorized transactions. This can result in direct financial losses and regulatory penalties under GDPR due to data breaches. Additionally, reputational damage could affect customer retention and market position. The banking sector is a high-value target in Europe, making such vulnerabilities attractive to cybercriminals and potentially nation-state actors. The lack of a patch increases exposure time, and the ease of exploitation means attackers can quickly leverage this flaw. Organizations may also face increased scrutiny from regulators and customers if the vulnerability is exploited. Overall, the impact extends beyond technical compromise to legal, financial, and operational domains.

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.
Architecture and Design · Implementation · Attack Surface Reduction
Understand all the potential areas where untrusted inputs can enter your software: parameters or arguments, cookies, anything read from the network, environment variables, reverse DNS lookups, query results, request headers, URL components, e-mail, files, filenames, databases, and any external systems that provide…
