CVE-2025-7344 is a high-severity privilege escalation vulnerability identified in the Digiwin EAI (Enterprise Application Integration) product. The root cause is classified under CWE-648, which involves the incorrect use of privileged APIs. Specifically, this vulnerability allows remote attackers who already have regular user privileges on the system to exploit a particular API within Digiwin EAI to elevate their privileges to administrator level. The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 reflects the critical nature of this flaw, with an attack vector that is network-based (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no authentication required (AT:N), and no user interaction needed (UI:N). The vulnerability severely impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability (VC:H, VI:H, VA:H), indicating that an attacker gaining administrative privileges could fully control the system, access sensitive data, modify or delete information, and disrupt services. The scope is unchanged (SC:N), meaning the vulnerability affects the same security scope. No patches have been published yet, and no known exploits are currently observed in the wild, but the ease of exploitation and impact make this a critical risk once weaponized. Digiwin EAI is typically used for integrating various enterprise applications and data sources, making it a strategic component in IT infrastructure. Misuse of privileged APIs suggests a design or implementation flaw where privilege checks are insufficient or bypassable, enabling unauthorized privilege escalation remotely.

For European organizations using Digiwin EAI, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Successful exploitation would allow attackers to gain administrative control over the integration platform, potentially compromising connected enterprise systems and sensitive data across the organization. This could lead to data breaches, unauthorized data manipulation, disruption of business processes, and lateral movement within corporate networks. Given the role of EAI in connecting critical business applications, the impact extends beyond a single system, potentially affecting supply chain management, financial systems, and customer data. The high severity and network-based exploitability mean attackers can operate remotely without user interaction, increasing the risk of widespread attacks. Organizations in sectors such as manufacturing, finance, healthcare, and government—where Digiwin EAI might be deployed—are particularly vulnerable to operational disruption and regulatory non-compliance due to data breaches.

Immediate mitigation steps include: 1) Conducting a thorough inventory to identify all Digiwin EAI deployments within the organization. 2) Applying any available vendor updates or patches as soon as they are released; since no patches are currently available, maintain close monitoring of Digiwin’s advisories. 3) Restrict network access to the Digiwin EAI management interfaces and APIs using network segmentation and firewall rules, limiting exposure to trusted internal IP addresses only. 4) Implement strict monitoring and logging of API calls and administrative actions to detect unusual privilege escalation attempts. 5) Employ multi-factor authentication and role-based access controls to reduce the risk of compromised credentials being leveraged. 6) Conduct internal penetration testing focusing on privilege escalation vectors within Digiwin EAI. 7) Prepare incident response plans specific to potential exploitation of this vulnerability. 8) Engage with Digiwin support for guidance and potential workarounds until official patches are available.
