EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 8.6 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 96% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

Nozomi Networks Labs identified a CWE-345: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity vulnerability in the firmware upgrade mechanism of the Advantech EKI-1242EIMS in firmware version V1.06.01. The device accepts firmware images through the authenticated web management interface without performing any cryptographic signature or certificate verification. An authenticated administrator-level attacker can install arbitrary modified firmware on the device, enabling full persistent compromise of the platform.
