CVE-2025-1449 Rockwell Automation CVE debrief

Who should care

Industrial control system administrators, Rockwell Automation Verve Asset Manager owners, OT security teams, and anyone operating or reviewing the product’s administrative web interface—especially environments that still rely on the deprecated Legacy ADI capability.

Technical summary

The advisory describes an insufficient variable sanitization issue in a portion of Verve Asset Manager’s administrative web interface tied to Legacy ADI. The stated impact is command execution in the context of the service container, and the provided CVSS vector reflects high impact with high privileges required (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H). The affected product scope in the supplied CSAF data is Rockwell Automation Verve Asset Manager <= 1.39, with remediation in 1.40.

Defensive priority

High. The vulnerability is rated 9.1/CRITICAL in the supplied data and can lead to arbitrary command execution if an attacker already has administrative access. Prioritize patching and access restriction for any exposed administrative interface, especially where Legacy ADI remains enabled or in use.

Recommended defensive actions

• Upgrade Rockwell Automation Verve Asset Manager to version 1.40 or later.
• If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict administrative access to the Verve Asset Manager interface to only trusted management networks and users.
• Review whether Legacy ADI is still needed; reduce or disable use of deprecated functionality where operationally feasible.
• Apply Rockwell Automation's security advisory guidance and general ICS security best practices.
• Monitor administrative activity and container/service logs for unexpected changes or command execution indicators.
• Confirm that the affected deployment is not running a version at or below 1.39.
