Compensating controls
- Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
- Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.
Verification
- Confirm that the asset runs ABB FLXEON and falls inside the recorded affected range.
- Recheck the vendor advisory before scheduling a change because no verified fixed version is currently retained.
- Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
- Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.

The vendor explicitly identifies these products as affected by this CVE.
- FBXi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- FBVi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- FBTi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- CBXi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- Summary
- Users can push files with full pathnames allowing file operations in off limits directories.
- Remediation
- Follow Mitigating factors. - Stop and disconnect any FLXEON products that are exposed directly to the Internet, either via a direct ISP connection or via NAT port forwarding. - Ensure that physical controls are in place, so no unauthorized personnel can access your devices, components, peripheral equipment, and networks. - Ensure that all FLXEON products are upgraded to the latest firmware version. Please find the latest version of FLXEON firmware on the respective product homepage. - When remote access is required, only use secure methods. If a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is used, ensure that the chosen VPN is secure i.e. updated to the most current version available and configured for secure access.

What, why and how
Improper Validation of Specified Type of Input vulnerability in ABB FLXEON.This issue affects FLXEON: through 9.3.5.
What
Improper Validation of Specified Type of Input vulnerability in ABB FLXEON.This issue affects FLXEON: through 9.3.5.
Why
The product receives input that is expected to be of a certain type, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input is actually of the expected type.
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 No confirmed evidence
?
Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.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 None recorded
?
Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.
- Likely attack path
- a network path → Improper Validation of Specified Type of Input → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor
- Attack surface
- Network
- Privileges required
- High: elevated access is required
- User interaction
- None
- Attack complexity
- Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
- Security boundary
- Not a CVSS 4.0 base metric
- Weakness
?
CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness. - CWE-1287 ↗
CWE-1287: Improper Validation of Specified Type of Input. The product receives input that is expected to be of a certain type, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input is actually of the expected type.

- No specific living-off-the-land technique is confirmed in the structured sources. Monitor normal administration tools for activity inconsistent with the affected service's baseline.

Patch and workaround
Operational remediation based on structured source evidence.
- Status
?
Patch availability is based on structured fixed-version fields and authoritative update references. If no fix is verified, check the vendor advisory before making a change. - Fix not verified
- Affected
- FBXi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- FBVi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- FBTi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- CBXi Firmware Version <= 9.3.5
- Fixed
- No fixed version is explicitly recorded in the structured CVE data.
- Action
- No verified patch reference is present in the current structured sources. Check the vendor advisory before making a change.
- Workaround
- No verified workaround is recorded. If business-safe, reduce exposure to the affected interface and allow only trusted sources until authoritative guidance is available.
