CWE-502Published: March 12, 2026· Updated: Mar 17, 2026
Official Description
A privileged Ignition user, intentionally or otherwise, imports an external file with a specially crafted payload, which executes embedded malicious code.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2025-13913 requires adjacent network access, limiting remote exploitation but still posing risk in shared or local network environments.
Exploitation requires high privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 6.3.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-502): Insecure deserialization vulnerabilities allow attackers to inject malicious objects during deserialization, potentially enabling remote code execution.
