Summary
CVE-2025-1177 is a medium-severity Improper Input Validation (CWE-20) vulnerability in Xunruicms Xunruicms. Its CVSS base score is 5.3 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Client Execution (T1203); ranked in the top 46% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-1177 is a critical vulnerability in dayrui XunRuiCMS version 4.6.3, affecting the import_add function within the file dayrui/Fcms/Control/Admin/Linkage.php. The flaw stems from improper input validation (CWE-20) enabling deserialization (CWE-502), with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L). It was published on 2025-02-11.
The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by attackers possessing low privileges, such as authenticated users with admin access to the affected component, requiring no user interaction. Manipulation of the import_add function triggers deserialization, potentially allowing limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Advisories are detailed in VulDB entries (ctiid.295080, id.295080, submit.495366), and the exploit has been publicly disclosed in a GitHub repository at stevenchen0x01/CVE2/blob/main/cve2.md, indicating it may be actively used.
Security practitioners should monitor for real-world exploitation, as the public disclosure of the exploit increases the risk of targeted attacks on unpatched XunRuiCMS instances.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing input validation through analysis or test cases.
SI-10 directly requires validity checks on information inputs, structurally preventing improper or missing validation.
Requiring documented development standards and tools can embed input-validation practices into the engineering process.
Engineering principles such as safe deserialization and input sanitization structurally prevent the weakness from being introduced.
Integrity verification tools can detect malformed or tampered serialized data after the fact.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Testing against a defined set of requirements and using code review plus vulnerability scanning forces validation of inputs and handling of unanticipated conditions, reducing the chance that malformed data will be accepted.
Requiring language-specific secure coding standards, peer review, SAST and documented mitigation of common programming errors forces validation of all inputs before they are trusted.
Regular scanning of third-party libraries and timely patching reduce the likelihood that unsafe deserialization vulnerabilities remain active.
Hardening callouts derived
DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.
- No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-20, a class-level weakness, and none of its children carries one either.
