Critical WebCTRL Server Flaws Threaten Building Automation Security in 2025
In November 2025, Automated Logic disclosed critical vulnerabilities impacting multiple legacy versions of its WebCTRL Premium Server and related Carrier i-Vu and SiteScan Web products. Reported by researchers Jaryl Low, Thuy D. Nguyen, and Cynthia E. Irvine, the flaws—CVE-2024-8527 (Open Redirect) and CVE-2024-8528 (Cross-site Scripting)—could allow remote attackers to deceive users into navigating to malicious sites or executing attacker-controlled scripts. These vulnerabilities affect industrial control solutions deployed globally within the Critical Manufacturing sector, potentially enabling credential theft, phishing, or unauthorized access to sensitive building automation environments. This incident underscores the urgent need for timely patching and secure software development in critical infrastructure industries. As web application attacks increase and threat actors target supply chain and operational technology, coordinated disclosures and swift remediation remain vital to reduce risk and comply with tightening regulatory frameworks.
