Summary

CVE-2025-30027 is a medium-severity Improper Validation of Specified Type of Input (CWE-1287) vulnerability in Axis Axis Os. Its CVSS base score is 6.7 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 5th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

An ACAP configuration file lacked sufficient input validation, which could allow for arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability can only be exploited if the Axis device is configured to allow the installation of unsigned ACAP applications, and if an attacker convinces…

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

SI-10 directly requires validation of information inputs, which structurally prevents type-validation failures from being introduced or exploitable.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing can detect type-validation flaws but does not prevent them during development.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and type checking to prevent improper type handling.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements explicitly include validation of input data types and formats.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles promote defensive input handling and type enforcement at system boundaries.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards directly require proper type validation of all external inputs.
