02 Description

S1 Agile Privilege Escalation

03 Exploitation and scoring

Exploitation
Assessed, none found. CISA's assessment recorded neither public exploit code nor evidence of exploitation when it was made.
SSVC decision
  • ExploitationnoneCISA recorded no public exploit code and no evidence of exploitation.
  • AutomatablenoAt least one step from reconnaissance to exploitation cannot be reliably automated.
  • Technical ImpacttotalSuccessful exploitation gives total control of the vulnerable component.
CISA publishes the decision points, not a final SSVC decision. The decision also depends on mission and well-being impact, which is a property of your deployment rather than of the vulnerability.
EPSS probability
0.11% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
EPSS percentile
Equal to or higher than the score of 1.5% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
NVD base score
7.5 (CVSS v4.0), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.

NVD analysis status
Deferred. NVD last modified this record on 2026-06-17.
Red Hat severity
No Red Hat rating. Red Hat rates the CVEs that affect its products.

Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.

07 Remediation

To resolve this issue and enhance security, during the S1 Agile application installation, we ensure only privileged users can access various folders used by the S1 Agile application. This ensures that S1 Agile files can not be edited or replaced by users without sufficient privileges on that computer. We would like to assert that this attack, if successful, can give “Administrator” privileges to the attacker on the computer, but the configured IEDs will not see any impact in their configuration or functionality. The RBAC (‘Role-Based Access Control’) on the IED remains unimpacted. We strongly recommend customers to upgrade to the latest software version available. Software version 3.1.1 is released for customer usage in January 2025.
