CVE-2025-13003

7.6 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability allows attackers to bypass authorization mechanisms in Aksis AxOnboard software by manipulating user-controlled keys or identifiers. Attackers can exploit trusted identifiers to gain unauthorized access to functionality or data. This affects all installations running AxOnboard versions 3.2.0 through 3.2.x.

💻 Affected Systems

  • Aksis Computer Services and Consulting Inc. AxOnboard
Versions: from 3.2.0 before 3.3.0
Operating Systems: Not specified, likely Windows-based given vendor profile
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All installations within the affected version range are vulnerable regardless of configuration.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete system compromise allowing attackers to access sensitive data, modify configurations, or perform administrative functions without proper authorization.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to user data, configuration changes, or privilege escalation within the AxOnboard application.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if proper network segmentation, monitoring, and least privilege principles are implemented.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH if AxOnboard is exposed to the internet, as attackers can directly exploit the vulnerability without internal access.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM for internal deployments, requiring attacker to have some level of network access or compromised credentials.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

CWE-639 typically involves manipulating identifiers in requests, which is relatively straightforward for attackers with some application knowledge.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: 3.3.0 or later

Vendor Advisory: https://www.usom.gov.tr/bildirim/tr-25-0446

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict network segmentation to isolate AxOnboard from untrusted networks
  • Deploy web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious identifier manipulation patterns

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check AxOnboard version in application interface or configuration files. If version is between 3.2.0 and 3.2.x, the system is vulnerable.

Check Version:

Check application interface or consult vendor documentation for version verification method.

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify AxOnboard version is 3.3.0 or later after applying the update.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual authorization attempts
  • Requests with manipulated identifiers or keys
  • Access to unauthorized functions by non-privileged users

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual patterns of requests to authorization endpoints
  • Requests containing unexpected parameter values

SIEM Query:

source="axonboard" AND (event_type="auth_failure" OR param_manipulation="true")
