Threat & Defense at a Glance

What attackers do: exploitation maps to Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190). What defenders deploy: see the NIST 800-53 controls recommended below.

Threat & Defense Details

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

prevent

Directly addresses unrestricted upload of dangerous file types by validating all information inputs at upload points to ensure only safe files are accepted.

SI-9 Information Input Restrictions good match

prevent

Restricts classes of dangerous file types from being uploaded, preventing attackers from introducing malicious files even with low privileges.

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match

prevent

Establishes processes to identify, report, and remediate the specific flaw enabling unrestricted file uploads, eliminating the vulnerability.

NVD Description

CWE-434: Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type vulnerability exists that could render the device inoperable when a malicious file is downloaded.

Deeper analysisAI

CVE-2025-1070 is a CWE-434 unrestricted upload of file with dangerous type vulnerability that could render the affected device inoperable when a malicious file is downloaded. Published on 2025-02-13 with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H), it impacts a Schneider Electric device, as detailed in their security notice.

An attacker with low privileges (PR:L) can exploit this vulnerability over the network (AV:N) with low complexity and no user interaction required (UI:N). Successful exploitation allows high integrity (I:H) and availability (A:H) impact with no confidentiality impact, potentially rendering the device inoperable by uploading a malicious file that is subsequently downloaded.

The Schneider Electric security and safety notice SEVD-2025-042-01, available at the referenced URL, provides details on mitigation measures for this vulnerability.
