Fuxa: Initialization of a Resource with an Insecure Default
CVE-2025-69970 is a critical-severity initialization of a resource with an insecure default vulnerability in Fuxa from Frangoteam, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.3 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, but only if a user takes part, for example by opening a link or file. Affected Fuxa versions: 1.2.7. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.52% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of Fuxa you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.
- Because the attack needs a user to take part, warn users about unexpected links and files related to this product until it is patched.

Official description
FUXA v1.2.7 contains an insecure default configuration vulnerability in server/settings.default.js. The 'secureEnabled' flag is commented out by default, causing the application to initialize with authentication disabled. This allows unauthenticated remote attackers to access sensitive API endpoints, modify projects, and control industrial equipment immediately after installation.

The underlying weakness: Initialization of a Resource with an Insecure Default
