Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires network reachability to the IntraVUE management API on an affected server (version 3.2.1a14 or prior); the credentials are exposed specifically through that API because they are stored in plaintext. The CVSS 4.0 vector states PR:N/UI:N (no privileges and no user interaction), implying the API disclosure path is reachable without authentication against affected builds - however, the description does not confirm whether the API endpoint enforces a session, so if authentication is in fact required this becomes an authenticated disclosure; verify with the ICS-CERT advisory. The principal limiting factor is network exposure of the API: deployments that segment or firewall the IntraVUE server off from untrusted networks substantially reduce reachability.

Impact

The supplied CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.7 (High) with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N and VC:H/VI:N/VA:N, indicating a network-reachable, low-complexity confidentiality-only disclosure requiring no privileges or user interaction. No EPSS score was provided, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified, and the CVE is not in CISA KEV, so there is no evidence of active exploitation - the signals are consistent with a serious but not yet demonstrably exploited weakness. One point warrants verification: the CVSS marks PR:N (unauthenticated), yet the description says exposure occurs 'through the API,' and many management APIs require a session - if the API endpoint enforces authentication, real-world attack surface is narrower than PR:N implies; confirm with the vendor/ICS-CERT advisory. Because this is confidentiality-only (VI:N/VA:N), the direct impact is credential leakage, but harvested cleartext credentials commonly enable follow-on lateral movement, making the practical risk higher than an isolated info-disclosure.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with network reachability to the IntraVUE server queries the affected API endpoint and receives stored account passwords in cleartext, then reuses those credentials to authenticate to IntraVUE or connected industrial systems. Given AC:L and no required user interaction, the request is straightforward once the endpoint is reachable; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv2 – Jul 23, 2026

Cleartext credential exposure in Pronetiqs IntraVUE (Panduit IntraVUE) versions 3.2.1a14 and prior allows an attacker to retrieve stored passwords in plaintext via the product's API, because credentials are never hashed or encrypted at rest. This industrial-network visualization tool is affected across all builds up to and including 3.2.1a14, and per the CVSS 4.0 vector the disclosure is reachable over the network without authentication (VC:H). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the ICS-CERT advisory (ICSA-26-204-04) confirms the flaw.

Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
v1 Jul 23, 2026 - 22:47 CVSS 7.5

Cleartext credential disclosure in Pronetiqs IntraVUE (marketed as Panduit IntraVUE) 3.2.1a14 and earlier allows retrieval of stored passwords in plaintext through the product's API, because credentials are stored without cryptographic protection (CWE-256). The flaw carries CVSS 7.5 with a network attack vector and no privileges or user interaction per the ICS-CERT assessment, meaning exposed credentials can be harvested and reused to pivot into the monitored industrial network. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.

RemediationAI

No specific fixed version was provided in the input data, so no vendor-released patch version can be cited here - consult the CISA ICS advisory at https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-advisories/icsa-26-204-04 for the vendor's remediated build and upgrade guidance, and upgrade beyond 3.2.1a14 once the fixed release is identified. As compensating controls until patched: restrict network access to the IntraVUE API so only trusted management hosts can reach it (via host firewall or network ACLs), which prevents remote credential retrieval but may break legitimate integrations that call the API; place the IntraVUE server on an isolated OT management VLAN behind segmentation, at the cost of added routing/administration overhead; and, because credentials are stored in cleartext, rotate any passwords held in IntraVUE and avoid reusing them elsewhere so that a disclosure does not compromise other systems.

Technical ContextAI · show details

IntraVUE is a network mapping and diagnostic platform used to visualize and monitor industrial/OT Ethernet infrastructure, exposing a management API for automation and integration. The root cause is CWE-256 (Plaintext Storage of a Password): the application persists account credentials without hashing or encryption, so any code path that reads that store - here, an API endpoint - returns usable cleartext secrets. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:pronetiqs:panduit_intravue identifies the affected software; the vulnerability is in how the application handles credential storage rather than in any transport-layer or protocol weakness.

DescriptionCVE.org

Pronetiqs IntraVUE Versions 3.2.1a14 and prior have a plaintext storage of a password vulnerability that could expose cleartext credentials through the API.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Pronetiqs IntraVUE (versions 3.2.1a14 and prior) exposes all stored credentials in plaintext via an unauthenticated network API. Complete credential compromise enables attackers to move laterally into critical infrastructure and systems protected by those credentials. Organizations must immediately isolate the product and rotate all affected credentials.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Implement firewall rules to block external access to IntraVUE API endpoints; disable the API if operational requirements permit; rotate all credentials stored within the product and those credentials that provide access elsewhere; establish network segmentation isolating IntraVUE from critical industrial control segments; enable and monitor API access logs for unauthorized access attempts.
