Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability in Honeywell MB-Secure allows Privilege Abuse. This issue affects MB-Secure: from V11.04 before V12.53 and MB-Secure PRO from V01.06 before V03.09.Honeywell also recommends updating to the most recent version of this product.
Executive ViewAI
CVE-2025-2605 presents critical security risk, a OS command injection vulnerability rated CVSS 9.9. Successful exploitation could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or commands on affected systems, potentially leading to full system compromise. Organizations should apply vendor updates immediately when available and implement compensating controls in the interim.
Apply vendor patch. If immediate patching is not feasible: (1) Deploy WAF rules to block injection patterns; (2) Restrict network access to affected components; (3) Enable enhanced logging for suspicious activity.
