🔒 AVEVA has released advisory ICSA-25-317-03 addressing a cryptographic weakness in AVEVA Edge (formerly InduSoft Web Studio) that could allow a local actor with read access to project or offline cache files to brute-force user or Active Directory passwords. The issue is tracked as CVE-2025-9317 and carries a CVSS v4 base score of 8.3. AVEVA provides a 2023 R2 P01 Security Update and recommends project migration, password resets, and tightened file access controls. This vulnerability is not remotely exploitable according to CISA.

⚠️ CISA published an advisory on November 13, 2025, warning that Brightpick AI devices — Mission Control and Internal Logic Control — contain multiple high-severity weaknesses that are remotely exploitable. Tracked as CVE-2025-64307, CVE-2025-64308, and CVE-2025-64309, the issues include missing authentication, hardcoded credentials in client-side JavaScript, and an unauthenticated WebSocket endpoint. Calculated scores reach up to CVSS v4 8.7, and CISA advises isolating affected systems, minimizing network exposure, and using secure remote access while conducting impact assessments.

⚠️ Siemens published an advisory for LOGO! 8 and SIPLUS LOGO! devices detailing three vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-40815, CVE-2025-40816, CVE-2025-40817) that could enable remote code execution, denial-of-service, or unauthenticated device manipulation. CVE-2025-40815 is a buffer overflow (CVSSv4 8.6) caused by improper TCP packet validation; the others are missing-authentication issues affecting IP and time configuration. Siemens is preparing fixes; interim mitigations include protecting LSC access with a strong password and restricting UDP port 10006 to trusted IPs while CISA recommends impact analyses before changes.

⚠️ Rockwell Automation's AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation has a directory traversal vulnerability (CWE-22) in DotNetZip (v1.16.0 and earlier) that can enable remote code execution if a user opens a crafted file. The issue is tracked as CVE-2024-48510 and has a CVSS v4 base score of 8.6 (CVSS v3.1 8.8). Affected versions are 2.00.00 through 2.00.04; Rockwell reports the defect is corrected in Version 2.01.00.

Mitsubishi recommends using VPNs and limiting physical and LAN access while applying vendor guidance and assessing risk.

🔒 Siemens reported Cross-Site Request Forgery and incorrect permission assignment vulnerabilities affecting SICAM P850 and P855 devices (versions prior to 3.11). Exploitation could allow attackers to perform actions as authenticated users or impersonate sessions. Siemens recommends updating to v3.11+, restricting TCP/443 to trusted IPs, and hardening network access; CISA advises isolating control networks and avoiding internet exposure.

⚠️ Rockwell Automation disclosed two local vulnerabilities in Studio 5000 Simulation Interface (version 2.02 and earlier) that allow path traversal–based local code execution (CVE-2025-11696) and a local SSRF that can trigger outbound SMB requests for NTLM hash capture (CVE-2025-11697). Both issues carry high severity (CVSS v4: 9.3 and 8.8) and are exploitable by low-complexity local attackers. Rockwell recommends upgrading to version 3.0.0 or later; CISA advises isolating control system networks, minimizing exposure, and following secure remote-access practices.
