Advantech WISE-DeviceOn Server versions prior to 5.4Â contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the /rmm/v1/rule-engines endpoint. When an authenticated user creates or updates a rule for an agent, the rule fields min, max, and unit are stored and later rendered in rule listings or detail views without proper HTML sanitation. An attacker can inject malicious script into one or more of these fields, which is then executed in the browser context of users who view or interact with the affected rule, potentially enabling session compromise and unauthorized actions as the victim.
This vulnerability carries a MEDIUM severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 5.4, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity though user interaction is required requiring only low-level privileges . The vulnerability impacts limited data confidentiality, limited integrity, for affected systems. Impacting 1 product from advantech organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2025, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For advantech's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
