Last modified
CVE-2025-54497 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.1/10 on the CVSS scale. Cognex In-Sight Explorer and In-Sight Camera Firmware expose a telnet-based service on port 23 to allow management operations such as firmware upgrades and device reboots, which require authentication. A user with protected privileges can successfully invoke the SetSerialPort functionality to modify relevant device properties (such as serial interface settings), contradicting the security model proposed in the user manual.. EPSS estimates a 0.29% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
