Impact

The vulnerability in Hitachi Coding Software Suite allows an unprivileged user to perform operations normally reserved for administrators due to an incorrect authorization check. This results in a privilege‑escalation scenario that could compromise system integrity and confidentiality. The weakness is classified as CWE‑863, Incorrect Authorization.

Affected Systems

Output products affected are Hitachi Coding Software Suite, versions through 3.3.0, as identified by the vendor. The issue affects all installations of this version under the Hitachi Industrial Equipment Systems umbrella.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS base score of 8.7 signals a high severity flaw, but the EPSS score is not available, making it unclear how frequently the vulnerability is being exploited in the wild. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit it using any user account that exists in the system, with no special privileges required beyond a normal user account. Once exploited, the user gains full administrative capabilities, which could lead to data exfiltration, modification, or service disruption.

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Hitachi Coding Software Suite to a version newer than 3.3.0 once the vendor releases an update that addresses the authorization flaw.
  • Enforce principle of least privilege by ensuring that only verified administrative accounts have access to privileged operations and disabling unnecessary admin features for standard users.
  • Activate auditing and monitoring of privileged operations so that any anomalous admin activity performed by non‑admin users can be identified and investigated promptly.
