CVE-2025-47758

7.8 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in V-SFT v6.2.5.0 and earlier allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking users into opening specially crafted V7 or V8 files. This affects all users of vulnerable V-SFT versions and can lead to complete system compromise. The vulnerability is triggered through normal file opening operations.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • V-SFT
Versions: v6.2.5.0 and earlier
Operating Systems: Windows
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Vulnerability is triggered by opening specially crafted V7 or V8 files through the vulnerable function.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Full system compromise with attacker gaining complete control over the affected system, enabling data theft, lateral movement, and persistent backdoor installation.

🟠

Likely Case

Application crash leading to denial of service, with potential for information disclosure through memory dumps and possible remote code execution in targeted attacks.

🟢

If Mitigated

Application crash without code execution if exploit fails or memory protections are effective, but still causing service disruption.

🌐 Internet-Facing: MEDIUM
🏢 Internal Only: HIGH

🎯 Exploit Status

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

Exploitation requires user interaction to open malicious files. No public exploit code has been identified at this time.

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: v6.2.5.1 or later

Vendor Advisory: https://monitouch.fujielectric.com/site/download-e/09vsft6_inf/Search.php

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Download the latest version from Fuji Electric's official website. 2. Uninstall the current vulnerable version. 3. Install the patched version. 4. Restart the system to ensure all components are updated.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Restrict File Access

windows

Block opening of V7 and V8 files from untrusted sources

Application Control

windows

Use application whitelisting to restrict V-SFT execution to trusted locations only

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict file validation policies to block suspicious V7/V8 files
  • Isolate V-SFT systems from critical network segments and implement network segmentation

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check V-SFT version in Help > About menu. If version is 6.2.5.0 or earlier, the system is vulnerable.

Check Version:

Check Help > About menu in V-SFT application

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify version is 6.2.5.1 or later in Help > About menu and test opening known safe V7/V8 files.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Application crash logs from V-SFT
  • Memory access violation errors in Windows Event Logs
  • Unexpected process termination of VS6File.exe

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual outbound connections from V-SFT process
  • File transfers of V7/V8 files from untrusted sources

SIEM Query:

EventID=1000 OR EventID=1001 AND ProcessName="VS6File.exe" OR Application="V-SFT"
