CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2025-50692 is a critical-severity Code Injection (CWE-94) vulnerability in Foxcms Foxcms. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Command and Scripting Interpreter (T1059); ranked at the 48th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); 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.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
FoxCMS versions up to and including v1.2.5 contain a code injection vulnerability (CWE-94) in the admin/template_file/editFile.html component. The flaw permits unauthenticated remote attackers to supply crafted input that results in arbitrary code execution on the server, reflected in the maximum-severity CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8.
An attacker with network access can directly target the editFile endpoint without credentials or user interaction, achieving full control over confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected installation. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to run arbitrary code, potentially leading to complete system compromise.
Public references consist primarily of a technical gist demonstrating the issue; no vendor advisory, patch information, or mitigation guidance is supplied in the available sources. The associated EPSS score remains flat at 0.0109 with no observed increase after disclosure.

V1.3.1
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation finds code paths that accept and execute externally influenced strings.
Input validation directly stops untrusted data from being used to construct executable code without neutralization.
Least privilege limits the damage an injected code fragment can perform once executed.
Requiring documented secure development standards and tools enforces use of safe code-generation APIs and escaping.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).
PR.DS-10 protects runtime data confidentiality/integrity but has no bearing on neutralizing externally influenced input during code generation, so neither direction shows any preventive effect.

Banning unapproved code samples and unauthenticated web services, combined with secure-coding standards and SAST, prevents the dynamic generation or inclusion of attacker-supplied code.
Controls that restrict unauthorized or malicious code from being introduced via external networks or removable media limit opportunities for an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary code.
