What is CVE-2025-54818?

Cognex's In-Sight Explorer and In-Sight Camera Firmware present a security concern due to the exposure of a proprietary protocol over TCP port 1069. This vulnerability allows unauthorized management operations, including alterations to system properties. Additionally, the user management features transmit sensitive information such as usernames and passwords through an unencrypted channel, making it possible for adjacent attackers to intercept valid credentials and potentially gain unauthorized access to the devices.
