CVE-2020-25223
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the WebAdmin of Sophos SG UTM before v9.705 MR5, v9.607 MR7, and v9.511 MR11
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 97%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 100
- Fecha de la puntuación: 3/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
CISA KEV — explotada activamente
- Añadida al catálogo: 25/3/2022
- Plazo de remediación: 15/4/2022
- Uso conocido en ransomware: Unknown
💥 Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
- Módulo de Metasploit (exploit fiable y al alcance de cualquiera) · Sophos UTM WebAdmin SID Command Injection
- Plantilla de Nuclei (detección automática y masiva) · Sophos UTM Preauth - Remote Code Execution
- Prueba de concepto en GitHub (no verificada) · Lista de pruebas de concepto en GitHub
⚠️ Las pruebas de concepto de GitHub no están verificadas: algunas son falsas o contienen malware. No las ejecute nunca fuera de un laboratorio aislado.
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1190Exploit Public-Facing Applicationinitial access95 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution95 % - Impacto secundario
T1078Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access75 % - Impacto secundario
T1565Data Manipulationimpact70 %
Vector AV:N/PR:N/UI:N indica explotación remota sin autenticación (T1190). CWE-78 (command injection) confirma RCE (T1059). Acceso a WebAdmin permite escalada y manipulación de datos.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
