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 · unedited
A vulnerability in the application software of multiple Radiometer products may allow remote code execution and unauthorized device management when specific internal conditions are met. Exploitation requires that a remote connection is established with additional information obtained through other means. The issue is caused by a weakness in the analyzer’s application software.                                                                                                                                                                                                Other related CVE's are CVE-2025-14095 & CVE-2025-14096.                                                                                                      Affected customers have been informed about this vulnerability. This CVE is being published to provide transparency. Required Configuration for Exposure: Affected application software version is in use and remote support feature is enabled in the analyzer.                                                                                                                                                                        Temporary work Around: If the network is not considered secure, please remove the analyzer from the network.                         Permanent solution: Customers should ensure the following: • The network is secure, and access follows best practices. Local Radiometer representatives will contact all affected customers to discuss a permanent solution.                                                      Exploit Status: Researchers have provided working proof-of-concept (PoC). Radiometer is not aware of any publicly available exploits at the time of this publication.

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 confidence

This vulnerability in Radiometer medical analyzer software allows remote code execution and unauthorized device management when the remote support feature is enabled. Exploitation requires establishing a remote connection combined with additional information obtained through other means, indicating a multi-step attack scenario. The vulnerability stems from weaknesses in the analyzer's application software layer.

MitigationDisable the remote support feature if the network is not trusted, or physically isolate the analyzer from untrusted networks. Coordinate with Radiometer representatives for the permanent vendor patch solution.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Radiometer analyzer software installation
    Locate Radiometer medical analyzer software on the system or device. Check for Radiometer application software in program directories, device management interfaces, or system inventory. Look for Radiometer-specific modules or services.
    Affected if Radiometer analyzer software is present on the system
  2. Verify remote support feature status
    Access the analyzer configuration settings or management interface. Navigate to remote support, remote access, or remote assistance settings. Check whether the remote support feature is currently enabled or disabled.
    Affected if Remote support feature is enabled on the analyzer
  3. Assess network exposure
    Review network configuration to determine which networks the analyzer is connected to. Check if the analyzer is isolated on a trusted medical network or exposed to untrusted/public networks.
    Affected if Analyzer is connected to an untrusted or untrusted network segment
  4. Check installed software version
    Query the installed Radiometer software version through the analyzer's system information, software management console, or device management interface. Compare the version against any vendor-supplied version guidance.
    Affected if Installed version is lower than the patched version (contact vendor for specific version numbers)

A user is affected if the Radiometer analyzer has remote support enabled and is connected to an untrusted network, regardless of software version.
