CVE-2025-5127: Teledyne FLIR AX8 prod.php cross site scripting

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 8/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.90% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 59.9% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Teledyne FLIR AX8 1.49.16.
  • Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 5.1, NVD 2.0.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Teledyne FLIR AX8 1.49.16 or later.
