SecurAccess: External Control of Assumed-Immutable Web Parameter
CVE-2025-30236 is a high-severity external control of assumed-immutable web parameter vulnerability in SecurAccess from SecurEnvoy, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.6 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 9.4.515 as the first without the flaw, so updating SecurAccess to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.36% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update SecurAccess to 9.4.515 or a later version.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

The underlying weakness: External Control of Assumed-Immutable Web Parameter
The web application does not sufficiently verify inputs that are assumed to be immutable but are actually externally controllable, such as hidden form fields.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Inputs should be decoded and canonicalized to the application's current internal representation before being validated (CWE-180). Make sure that the application does not decode the same input twice (CWE-174). Such errors could be used to bypass allowlist validation schemes by introducing dangerous inputs after they have been checked.
