An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-40949 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens RUGGEDCOM ROX MX5000. 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-2025-40949/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40949/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-40949","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40949/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-40949","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pfwq-586r-qjjm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"RUGGEDCOM ROX router","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can inject commands into the Web UI scheduler to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on RUGGEDCOM ROX devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_mx5000_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_mx5000re_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1400_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1500_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1501_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1510_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1511_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1512_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1524_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx1536_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"ruggedcom_rox_rx5000_firmware","vendor":"siemens"}],"cvss":{"score":8.9,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in RUGGEDCOM ROX MX5000 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX MX5000RE (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1400 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1500 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1501 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1510 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1511 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1512 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1524 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX1536 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1), RUGGEDCOM ROX RX5000 (All versions \u003c V2.17.1).
