Summary
A CWE-494: Download of Code Without Integrity Check vulnerability exists that could allow a privileged user to install an untrusted firmware.
Remediation
Trio Data Radios should be installed in a secure location to prevent physical access by unauthorized personnel, and appropriate password protections put in place to prevent remote access by unauthorized personnel. Firmware loaded in Trio Data Radios should be confirmed using the hash published with the release notes and following the instructions in Section 10 Part J – Firmware Updating and Maintenance in the Trio Q Data Radio User Manual, available here: https://download.schneiderelectric.com/files?p_Doc_Ref=Trio+Q+Data+Radio+U ser+Manual&p_enDocType=User+guide&p_File_Nam e=Trio+Q+Data+Radio+User+Manual.pdf This section provides information on how to download, install, and verify the new firmware

What, why and how

A CWE-494: Download of Code Without Integrity Check vulnerability exists that could allow a privileged user to install an untrusted firmware.

What

A CWE-494: Download of Code Without Integrity Check vulnerability exists that could allow a privileged user to install an untrusted firmware.

Why

The product downloads source code or an executable from a remote location and executes the code without sufficiently verifying the origin and integrity of the code.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation with elevated privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

What

A CWE-494: Download of Code Without Integrity Check vulnerability exists that could allow a privileged user to install an untrusted firmware.

Why

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation with elevated privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

02

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.
