CVE-2025-12001
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedLack of application manifest sanitation could lead to potential stored XSS.This issue affects BLU-IC2: through 1.19.5; BLU-IC4: through 1.19.5.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceStored XSS vulnerability in BLU-IC2 and BLU-IC4 industrial controllers due to lack of sanitization on application manifest data. User-supplied input stored in the manifest is rendered without proper encoding, allowing injection of malicious scripts that execute when the manifest is viewed by other users.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify firmware version on BLU-IC2 controllerAccess the controller's management interface or use the vendor-provided diagnostic tool to query the installed firmware version. Common methods include checking the 'About' or 'System Information' page in the web UI, or running a command like 'show version' via CLI if available.Affected if Firmware version is less than 1.20 (e.g., 1.19.x, 1.18.x)
-
Identify firmware version on BLU-IC4 controllerAccess the controller's management interface or use the vendor-provided diagnostic tool to query the installed firmware version. Common methods include checking the 'About' or 'System Information' page in the web UI, or running a command like 'show version' via CLI if available.Affected if Firmware version is less than 1.20 (e.g., 1.19.x, 1.18.x)
-
Determine if management interface is network-accessibleCheck network configuration to verify whether the controller's web-based management interface is exposed to network segments that include other users or untrusted devices. Review firewall rules, ACLs, or network segmentation settings.Affected if The management interface is reachable from network segments where other users or untrusted devices reside
-
Verify if manifest viewing functionality is accessibleCheck if the application manifest feature is enabled and accessible through the management interface. This may involve reviewing user roles, permissions, or feature flags configured on the controller.Affected if Users can access the manifest viewing feature and the controller firmware is below version 1.20
A user is affected if their BLU-IC2 or BLU-IC4 controller runs firmware version 1.19.x or lower AND the management interface with manifest viewing capability is accessible to users who could inject malicious script content.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped1.20
Implement proper input validation and output encoding on all manifest fields; apply vendor firmware update beyond version 1.19.5 when available; if no update exists, consider network segmentation to limit exposure of the management interface.
Firmware 1.20
- Identify the BLU-IC2 or BLU-IC4 device model and current firmware version
- Download the firmware version 1.20 or later from the vendor's official support website
- Review vendor release notes for any specific upgrade prerequisites or warnings
- Follow the vendor's standard firmware update procedure (typically via web UI, USB, or network-based deployment)
- After upgrade, verify the new firmware version is 1.20 or later
- Test that the application manifest functionality works correctly post-upgrade
