CVE-2026-44415 · Severity: critical · CVSS 9.1 · Published 2026-10-13

Siemens Industrial Edge devices and related components fail to properly restrict access to internal APIs and system paths for authenticated users. An attacker with valid credentials can exploit this path traversal vulnerability to read sensitive internal information, potentially leading to further compromise of the system or unauthorized data deletion in critical industrial environments.

Vendors: [Siemens](https://junglewise.ai/threats/vendors/siemens).

Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.

## How to fix

- Fixed in Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.26.2-1, V1.27.1-1, V1.28.0-6; Industrial Edge Cloud Device (IECD) V1.28.1; Industrial Edge Own Device (IEOD) V1.28.1; Industrial Edge Virtual Device (IEVD) V1.28.1

Restrict network access to affected devices and their internal APIs using firewall rules and access control lists. Disable or isolate internal API paths that are not required for normal operation, and monitor authentication logs for suspicious access patterns from authenticated users.

## Technical details

Path traversal vulnerability in Industrial Edge Device Kit and related devices allows authenticated remote attackers to access sensitive internal information through improperly restricted internal API paths. The vulnerability requires prior authentication and network access to the affected device. Exploitation enables information disclosure and may facilitate privilege escalation or data destruction.
