Delta Electronics DIAScreen Vulnerabilities Allow Out-of-Bounds Write Exploits

Updated 3mo agoFirst seen Oct 7, 20253 sources

CISA released an advisory detailing two out-of-bounds write vulnerabilities in Delta Electronics DIAScreen, a product used in industrial control systems. The affected product versions include DIAScreen version 1.6.0 and prior. These vulnerabilities, identified as CVE-2025-59297 and CVE-2025-59298, can be exploited when a valid user opens a maliciously crafted project file, allowing an attacker to write data outside the allocated memory buffer. Both vulnerabilities are rated with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.6 and a CVSS v4 base score of 6.8, indicating a medium severity level. The attack complexity is considered low, and exploitation does not require privileges, but user interaction is necessary. Successful exploitation could result in loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, with a particular risk of denial-of-service or potential code execution. CISA's advisory provides technical details about the vulnerabilities and recommends mitigations to reduce risk. Administrators and users are encouraged to review the advisory and apply the recommended security measures. The vulnerabilities highlight the ongoing risks associated with file parsing in industrial control system software. Delta Electronics is a major vendor in the ICS sector, and vulnerabilities in its products can have significant operational impacts. The advisories were released on October 7, 2025, as part of CISA's ongoing efforts to inform the ICS community about emerging threats. The technical details specify that the vulnerabilities are triggered by opening malicious project files, emphasizing the importance of user awareness and safe file handling practices. The advisory does not mention active exploitation in the wild at the time of publication. CISA's notification is part of a broader set of ICS advisories released on the same date, but the DIAScreen vulnerabilities are specifically addressed in their own advisory. The disclosure underscores the need for timely patching and adherence to vendor guidance in industrial environments. Organizations using DIAScreen should assess their exposure and implement mitigations as soon as possible. The vulnerabilities are tracked under the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) identifier CWE-787, which relates to out-of-bounds write issues. The advisory also provides links to further technical resources and encourages feedback from the ICS community.
