CVE-2023-25548Network attack vector

Authenticated device credential disclosure via improperly secured endpoints

Published Apr 18, 2023 · Updated Mar 3, 2025

Incorrect authorization in EcoStruxure IT Data Center Expert 7.9.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to access device credentials. Specific DCE endpoints fail to enforce the intended authorization level when returning stored device credentials; Schneider Electric has not disclosed their names or implementation. A low-privileged account and network access to those endpoints are required, and the demonstrated consequence is disclosure of credentials for managed devices.
