CVE-2025-66590
Published: 11 December 2025
Summary
CVE-2025-66590 is a high-severity Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787) vulnerability in Azeotech Daqfactory. Its CVSS base score is 8.4 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 26.2th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 SC-7 (Boundary Protection) and SI-16 (Memory Protection).
Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-66590 is an Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability (CWE-787) affecting AzeoTech DAQFactory release 20.7 (Build 2555). The flaw allows an attacker to write data past the end of an allocated memory buffer, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or a system crash. It has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8, reflecting its critical severity.
The vulnerability can be exploited remotely over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L), requiring no privileges (PR:N) or user interaction (UI:N), and results in high impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H) in an unchanged scope (S:U). Any unauthenticated attacker with network access to a vulnerable DAQFactory instance could trigger the out-of-bounds write, enabling arbitrary code execution on the target system or causing a denial-of-service via crash.
The CISA ICS Advisory ICSA-25-345-03 (https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-advisories/icsa-25-345-03) provides additional details on the vulnerability and recommended mitigations.
