CVE-2025-12097: Relative Path Traversal Vulnerability in NI System Web Server

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 34/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.66% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 51.8% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
  • Fixed version: NI LabVIEW 2013.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to NI LabVIEW 2013 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

There is a relative path traversal vulnerability in the NI System Web Server that may result in information disclosure.  Successful exploitation requires an attacker to send a specially crafted request to the NI System Web Server, allowing the attacker to read arbitrary files.  This vulnerability existed in the NI System Web Server 2012 and prior versions.  It was fixed in 2013.
