Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Circutor SGE-PLC1000 and SGE-PLC50 9.0.2. This affects some unknown processing of the component Image Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a hard-coded key vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-321. The use of a hard-coded cryptographic key significantly increases the possibility that encrypted data may be recovered. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Use of hardcoded cryptographic keys in Circutor SGE-PLC1000/SGE-PLC50 v9.0.2. The affected firmware contains a hardcoded static authentication key. An attacker with local access to the device can extract this key (e.g., by analysing the firmware image or memory dump) and create valid firmware update packages. This bypasses all intended access controls and grants full administrative privileges.

The weakness was presented by Gabriel Gonzalez and Sergio Ruiz. The advisory is shared at incibe.es. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2025-11781 since 10/15/2025. The exploitability is told to be easy. An attack has to be approached locally. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1600.001 for this issue.

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.

The vulnerability is also documented in the vulnerability database at EUVD (EUVD-2025-200235). If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
