CVE-2025-12507

SYSTEM code execution via unquoted service path

Published Oct 31, 2025 · Updated Oct 31, 2025

Unquoted service path in Bizerba _connect.BRAIN before 5.02 allows local users to execute programs with SYSTEM privileges. The BCS service stores its executable path without quotation marks in HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BCS\ImagePath, causing Windows service startup to resolve an attacker-planted executable earlier in the spaced path. A local low-privileged user must be able to place a program in a searched path location; execution occurs when the privileged BCS service starts.
