Severity

8.3 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H

Summary

A vulnerability has been identified in Industrial Edge App Publisher (All versions < V1.27.9). The application fails to properly sanitize or escape data received from the backend before rendering it in the user interface. Because the front end is integrated with Node.js, this vulnerability allows for the execution of arbitrary JavaScript, which can be leveraged to achieve remote code execution (RCE) on the victim's machine

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
