CVE-2025-6204
📋 TL;DR
This CVE describes a code injection vulnerability in DELMIA Apriso manufacturing software that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems. Organizations using DELMIA Apriso releases 2020 through 2025 are vulnerable. The vulnerability has been added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, indicating active exploitation.
💻 Affected Systems
- DELMIA Apriso
📦 What is this software?
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete system compromise allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the Apriso service account, potentially leading to data theft, ransomware deployment, or lateral movement within manufacturing networks.
Likely Case
Attackers gain initial foothold in manufacturing environments, potentially disrupting operations, stealing intellectual property, or using compromised systems as pivot points to other critical infrastructure.
If Mitigated
With proper network segmentation and access controls, impact is limited to the Apriso application server, though data exfiltration or service disruption remains possible.
🎯 Exploit Status
CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild and added this to their Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. The CWE-94 classification suggests relatively straightforward exploitation.
