Summary

CVE-2025-52577 is a high-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Advantech Iview. Its CVSS base score is 8.7 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 24.3% 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 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SI-2 (Flaw Remediation).

Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-52577 is a vulnerability in Advantech iView that enables SQL injection and remote code execution through the NetworkServlet.archiveTrapRange() component. Certain input parameters are not properly sanitized, allowing injection of malicious SQL payloads. The issue affects Advantech iView and was published on 2025-07-11, with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and association to CWE-89.

Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker with at least user-level privileges over the network. A successful attack can achieve SQL injection and remote code execution in the context of the 'nt authority\local service' account, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Advantech provides mitigation via firmware updates detailed at https://www.advantech.com/en/support/details/firmware-?id=1-HIPU-183. Additional guidance is available in CISA ICS Advisory ICSA-25-191-08 at https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-advisories/icsa-25-191-08.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match
prevent

Information input validation directly prevents SQL injection by ensuring unsanitized parameters in NetworkServlet.archiveTrapRange() are checked and rejected.

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match
prevent

Flaw remediation addresses the specific vulnerability through timely application of Advantech firmware updates that fix the input sanitization issue.

AC-6 Least Privilege partial match
prevent

Least privilege limits the impact of remote code execution by restricting the 'nt authority\local service' account privileges even if exploitation succeeds.
