CVE-2025-54863Network attack vector

Unauthenticated API control via exposed REST key

Published Nov 4, 2025 · Updated Nov 4, 2025

Credential exposure in Radiometrics VizAir before 08/2025 allows remote attackers to control its REST API without authentication. A publicly accessible configuration file discloses the REST API key instead of restricting the credential to authorized users and services. Network access to that file is sufficient to read or alter weather data and settings and to inject false alerts that interrupt service.
