CVE-2025-60739: Critical CSRF Vulnerability in Ilevia EVE X1 Server Exposes to Remote Code Execution

Overview

CVE-2025-60739 describes a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability affecting Ilevia EVE X1 Server Firmware versions up to and including v4.7.18.0.eden, and Logic Version v6.00 – 2025_07_21. This vulnerability, located within the /bh_web_backend component, allows a remote attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code on the affected server. CSRF vulnerabilities exploit the trust a website has in a user’s browser, enabling attackers to perform actions on behalf of an authenticated user without their knowledge or consent.

Technical Details

The vulnerability resides in the /bh_web_backend component of the Ilevia EVE X1 Server. Due to insufficient CSRF protection, an attacker can craft a malicious HTML page or email containing a request that, when visited by an authenticated user, will be automatically submitted to the Ilevia EVE X1 Server. This crafted request can then trigger unintended functionality within the /bh_web_backend, potentially leading to remote code execution. The specific mechanism for code execution will depend on the implementation details of the /bh_web_backend and the parameters that can be manipulated through the CSRF attack.

Essentially, if a logged-in user visits a malicious site controlled by an attacker, the site can send unauthorized commands to the Ilevia server via the user’s browser, as if they were legitimate requests from the user themselves.

CVSS Analysis

As of the publication date, the CVE entry indicates the Severity and CVSS score are currently N/A (Not Available). This likely means the scoring is still being assessed by the relevant authorities. However, given the potential for remote code execution, it is highly probable that the final CVSS score will be rated as Critical or High. A full analysis will need to be performed once the CVSS score is available. Considerations will include attack vector (network), attack complexity (likely low), privileges required (none if the user is authenticated), user interaction (required), scope (changed), confidentiality impact (high), integrity impact (high), and availability impact (high).

Possible Impact

Successful exploitation of this CSRF vulnerability could have significant consequences, including:

  • Remote Code Execution: An attacker could potentially execute arbitrary code on the Ilevia EVE X1 Server, gaining complete control over the system.
  • Data Breach: Sensitive data stored on the server could be accessed, modified, or deleted.
  • System Compromise: The server could be used as a launching point for further attacks on the network.
  • Denial of Service (DoS): The server could be rendered unavailable to legitimate users.

Mitigation or Patch Steps

The primary mitigation strategy is to upgrade the Ilevia EVE X1 Server to a patched version that addresses the CSRF vulnerability. Contact Ilevia support for the latest updates and security patches.

In the meantime, consider the following temporary mitigations:

  • Implement CSRF Protection: If possible, implement CSRF protection mechanisms such as synchronizer tokens or double-submit cookies on the /bh_web_backend component. This requires modifying the server’s code, so proceed with caution.
  • Restrict Access: Limit access to the Ilevia EVE X1 Server to authorized users only.
  • Educate Users: Train users to be cautious about clicking on links or opening attachments from untrusted sources.
  • Monitor Network Traffic: Monitor network traffic for suspicious activity that may indicate a CSRF attack.
