Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability in the iDTM FDI allows an attacker with elevated privileges and access to the host system to enable the debug interface by placing a crafted file in the application directory, potentially resulting in unauthorized access to connected devices and exposure, modification, or disruption of device data or operation.
AnalysisAI
Endress+Hauser FDI Package Library versions 1.00.00 through 2.01.00 exposes a CWE-427 (Uncontrolled Search Path Element) flaw in its iDTM FDI component, allowing a locally privileged attacker to activate the debug interface by dropping a crafted file into the application directory. Successful exploitation grants unauthorized access to connected industrial field devices, enabling data exfiltration, configuration manipulation, or operational disruption. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires two concurrent conditions: (1) local access to the host system running FDI Package Library (AV:L - remote network exploitation is not possible), and (2) elevated privileges on that host sufficient to write files to the FDI application directory (PR:H). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.4 reflects the full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system (VC:H/VI:H/VA:H), but the attack vector metrics critically shape real-world risk: AV:L requires the attacker to already have local access to the host, and PR:H requires elevated privileges - both are substantial prerequisites that rule out remote or opportunistic exploitation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has gained elevated (administrator-level) access to an engineering workstation running Endress+Hauser FDI Package Library - whether through credential theft, lateral movement, or insider access - places a specially crafted file in the FDI application directory. When the iDTM FDI component processes the directory, the debug interface is activated, granting the attacker direct low-level access to connected field devices such as sensors or actuators, from which they can read sensitive process data, modify device configuration, or disrupt device operation. … |
| Remediation | The vendor has released a patch; upgrade to FDI Package Library version 2.01.00 or later, as confirmed by the ENISA EUVD entry and CERTVDE advisory VDE-2026-065 (https://www.certvde.com/en/advisories/VDE-2026-065/). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, identify all systems running affected Endress+Hauser FDI Package Library versions 1.00.00 through 2.01.00 and audit which users possess elevated local system access to these systems. …
