CVE-2025-67450

Local code execution via insecure library loading

Published Dec 26, 2025 · Updated Dec 26, 2025

Insecure library loading in Eaton UPS Companion before 3.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary code through the software package. The EUC executable loads a library through an uncontrolled search-path element, although Eaton does not identify the executable or library. Exploitation requires local, low-privileged access to the software package; arbitrary code then runs in the executable's context.
