Summary

CVE-2025-0680 is a critical-severity OS Command Injection (CWE-78) vulnerability in Cisa (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 9.3 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 25.4% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 AC-17 (Remote Access) and IA-8 (Identification and Authentication (Non-organizational Users)).

Deeper analysis

Affected products contain a vulnerability in the device cloud rpc command handling process, tracked as CVE-2025-0680 and assigned CWE-78. The flaw received a CVSS 4.0 score of 9.3 and permits remote attackers to seize control of arbitrary devices connected to the cloud.

Remote unauthenticated attackers can exploit the issue over the network without user interaction, achieving full control over targeted devices. The attack vector requires no privileges and directly impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the affected devices.

CISA has published ICS advisory ICSA-25-030-02 addressing the issue, while the vendor reference points to New Rock Technologies for further contact.

EPSS for the CVE rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.0186 on 2026-04-11 before receding to the current value of 0.0081, indicating a period of increased exploitation interest after disclosure.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter Execution
Adversaries may abuse command and script interpreters to execute commands, scripts, or binaries.
Why these techniques?

CWE-78 OS command injection in public cloud RPC handler enables remote unauthenticated RCE on devices (T1190 for public-facing exploitation; T1059 for arbitrary command execution).

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly mitigates CWE-78 OS command injection in the device cloud RPC command handling by validating and sanitizing inputs to prevent malicious command execution.

prevent

Requires identification and authentication for non-organizational users interacting with the cloud RPC service, blocking unauthenticated remote exploitation.

prevent

Establishes controls and authorization for remote access to the device cloud service, preventing unauthorized remote attackers from reaching the vulnerable RPC handling process.
