Industrial Edge Management Pro V1: Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness
CVE-2026-33892 is a high-severity authentication bypass by primary weakness vulnerability in Industrial Edge Management Pro V1 from Siemens, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 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. The record lists version V1.15.17 as the first without the flaw, so updating Industrial Edge Management Pro V1 to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.21% 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 Industrial Edge Management Pro V1 to V1.15.17 or a later version.
- Update Industrial Edge Management Pro V2 to V2.1.1 or a later version.
- Update Industrial Edge Management Virtual to V2.8.0 or a later version.
- 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
A vulnerability has been identified in Industrial Edge Management Pro V1 (All versions >= V1.7.6 < V1.15.17), Industrial Edge Management Pro V2 (All versions >= V2.0.0 < V2.1.1), Industrial Edge Management Virtual (All versions >= V2.2.0 < V2.8.0). Affected management systems do not properly enforce user authentication on remote connections to devices. This could facilitate an unauthenticated remote attacker to circumvent authentication and impersonate a legitimate user. Successful exploitation requires that the attacker has identified the header and port used for remote connections to devices and that the remote connection feature is enabled for the device. Exploitation allows the attacker to tunnel to the device. Security features on this device itself (e.g. app specific authentication) are not affected.

The underlying weakness: Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness
The authentication algorithm is sound, but the implemented mechanism can be bypassed as the result of a separate weakness that is primary to the authentication error.
