Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires only network reachability to the FUXA REST API; the specific trigger is supplying a request path containing unnormalized dot-segments (e.g. /api/./users, /api/./roles, or /api/project/../users) to endpoints otherwise gated by authentication - no credentials, configuration changes, or user interaction are needed (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N). The condition is inherent to default behavior on versions 1.3.1 and prior, not a non-default feature. The primary limiting factor is exposure: the attacker must be able to reach the API endpoint, so deployments where the FUXA API is confined to an isolated OT/management network or sits behind a normalizing proxy are not remotely exploitable from untrusted networks. Impact is limited to disclosure of user and role data (no write/integrity or availability effect indicated).

Impact

Signals are consistent and point to a genuine priority for exposed instances. The supplied CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H, score 8.7) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity attack needing no privileges, no authentication, and no user interaction, with high confidentiality impact and no integrity/availability impact - matching the description of unauthenticated data disclosure. No EPSS score, KEV listing, or SSVC decision data was provided, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood and CISA's automatable/exploitation determinations cannot be cited here; the referenced CSAF advisory (ICSA-26-181-02) likely contains SSVC data not surfaced in this input. There is no conflict between the vector and the description. The main real-world risk modifier is exposure: FUXA is an OT/HMI product that should not be internet-facing, so blast radius depends heavily on whether the API is reachable from untrusted networks. Treat as high priority where FUXA is exposed beyond a trusted management segment; lower urgency for properly segmented deployments.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who can reach the FUXA web API over the network sends a crafted GET request such as /api/./users or /api/project/../users; the dot-segment evades the authentication middleware while the handler still serves the data, returning user accounts and role assignments with no login. The harvested credential and role metadata can then be used to plan deeper compromise of the SCADA/HMI environment. No public proof-of-concept was identified, but the request is simple enough to construct manually from the description.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 30, 2026

Authentication bypass in FUXA SCADA/HMI versions 1.3.1 and prior lets remote unauthenticated attackers reach protected REST API endpoints by inserting dot-segment sequences (e.g. /api/./users, /api/project/../users) that the router fails to normalize before applying its authentication middleware. Successful exploitation returns sensitive user and role data without any credentials. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the technique is trivially reproducible and the issue is documented in a CISA ICS advisory (ICSA-26-181-02).

RemediationAI

Upgrade to a fixed FUXA release once published; consult the GitHub releases page (https://github.com/frangoteam/FUXA/releases) and the CISA advisory (https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-advisories/icsa-26-181-02) for the exact patched version, as no fixed version number was provided in this input. Patch status: no specific vendor-released fix version identified at time of analysis - verify against the advisory. Until a confirmed patched build is applied, place FUXA behind a reverse proxy or WAF that canonicalizes or rejects URLs containing dot-segments before they reach the application (block or normalize requests matching /api/./, /api/../ and similar), which closes the bypass without altering FUXA itself but adds a proxy dependency and may false-positive on legitimately encoded paths. As a compensating control, restrict network access to the FUXA REST API to a trusted OT management segment or VPN and remove any internet exposure, accepting that this limits remote operator convenience. Following standard ICS guidance, isolate the HMI from business and internet-facing networks.

Technical ContextAI · show details

FUXA is an open-source, web-based SCADA/HMI platform (frangoteam) used to build operator dashboards and supervisory control interfaces for industrial/OT environments, exposing a Node.js REST API. The root cause maps to CWE-290 (Authentication Bypass by Spoofing): the API router enforces authentication by matching request paths against protected route prefixes, but it does so before canonicalizing the URL path. Because dot-segments ('./' and '../') are not collapsed prior to the auth check, a path like /api/./users does not literally match the guarded /api/users pattern and slips past the middleware, yet the underlying handler still resolves and serves the protected resource. This is a classic path-normalization-versus-authorization ordering bug where two components disagree on what the path 'is'.

DescriptionCVE.org

FUXA versions 1.3.1 and prior contain an authentication bypass vulnerability via dot-segment path normalization in the REST API. The API router fails to normalize dot-segment sequences before applying authentication middleware, allowing unauthenticated requests to access protected endpoints by prefixing paths with dot-segments such as /api/./users, /api/./roles, and /api/project/../users. These requests bypass authentication checks and return sensitive user and role data without credentials.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

FUXA SCADA/HMI versions 1.3.1 and earlier contain an unauthenticated remote access vulnerability enabling attackers to bypass authentication and retrieve sensitive user and role data. Organizations operating FUXA systems face immediate risk of unauthorized operational insight and potential privilege escalation. No vendor patch is currently available, requiring urgent interim network controls.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Network segmentation-restrict REST API access to authorized networks via firewall ACLs; (2) Path normalization at gateway-deploy WAF/proxy rules blocking dot-segments and directory traversal patterns; (3) Credential revocation-immediately reset passwords for all FUXA users to limit exposure from revealed roles/permissions; (4) Comprehensive logging-monitor API endpoint access for suspicious path patterns; (5) Consider disabling REST API if operationally feasible and alternative management methods exist.
