It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2025-40584 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2025-40584 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Siemens SIMOTION SCOUT TIA V5.4, published on 12 Aug 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-40584 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens SIMOTION SCOUT TIA V5.4. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40584/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40584/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-40584","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40584/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-40584","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f2j7-8mgp-4g8f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Siemens engineering software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can read arbitrary files on the system by exploiting an XML External Entity injection vulnerability in Siemens engineering software.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in SIMOTION SCOUT TIA V5.4 (All versions), SIMOTION SCOUT TIA V5.5 (All versions), SIMOTION SCOUT TIA V5.6 (All versions \u003c V5.6 SP1 HF7), SIMOTION SCOUT TIA V5.7 (All versions \u003c V5.7 SP1 HF1), SIMOTION SCOUT V5.4 (All versions), SIMOTION SCOUT V5.5 (All versions), SIMOTION SCOUT V5.6 (All versions \u003c V5.6 SP1 HF7), SIMOTION SCOUT V5.7 (All versions \u003c V5.7 SP1 HF1), SINAMICS STARTER V5.5 (All versions), SINAMICS STARTER V5.6 (All versions), SINAMICS STARTER V5.7 (All versions \u003c V5.7 HF2).
