Overview
CVE-2025-60737 details a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting Ilevia EVE X1 Server Firmware versions up to and including 4.7.18.0.eden (Logic Version <= 6.00 - 2025_07_21). This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code within the context of a user's browser by injecting malicious scripts through the /index.php component.
Technical Details
The vulnerability resides in the /index.php component of the Ilevia EVE X1 Server Firmware. Due to insufficient input validation, a remote attacker can inject malicious JavaScript code into the application. When a user accesses a page containing this injected script, the code is executed within their browser. This can lead to session hijacking, defacement, or redirection to malicious websites. The specific vector detailed in the reference link points to a potential CSRF vector coupled with the XSS, further amplifying the attack potential.
CVSS Analysis
Currently, the CVE entry lists the severity and CVSS score as N/A. However, XSS vulnerabilities can range from low to critical severity depending on the attack vector and potential impact. Given the possibility of session hijacking and the potential for exploiting a combination of XSS and CSRF (as suggested by the reference), a proper risk assessment is crucial. We strongly advise to treat this as a high severity vulnerability until a formal CVSS score is assigned.
Possible Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can have severe consequences, including:
- Session Hijacking: Attackers can steal user session cookies, allowing them to impersonate legitimate users and gain unauthorized access to sensitive data and functionalities.
- Website Defacement: Attackers can modify the content of the affected web pages, potentially damaging the reputation of the organization.
- Malware Distribution: Attackers can inject malicious scripts that redirect users to websites hosting malware.
- Data Theft: Attackers can steal sensitive information displayed on or processed by the web application.
- Administrative Access: If an administrator’s account is compromised, the attacker could gain full control of the Ilevia EVE X1 Server and potentially other connected systems.
Mitigation and Patch Steps
- Immediate Action: Contact Ilevia support to inquire about the availability of a patch or updated firmware.
- Firmware Upgrade: Once a patch or updated firmware is available, immediately upgrade your Ilevia EVE X1 Server to the latest version.
- Web Application Firewall (WAF): Implement or configure a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to filter out malicious requests and block potential XSS attacks. Configure the WAF with rules specifically designed to prevent XSS.
- Input Validation and Output Encoding: If possible, review the application code (if accessible) and implement robust input validation and output encoding to prevent XSS attacks.
- Monitor System Logs: Continuously monitor system logs for suspicious activity that may indicate an attempted or successful exploitation of this vulnerability.
