Potential Exploitation of RCE Vulnerability CVE-2025-33053 - Process Access
Author
Swachchhanda Shrawan Poudel (Nextron Systems)
Description
Detects potential exploitation of remote code execution vulnerability CVE-2025-33053 by looking for process access that involves legitimate Windows executables (iediagcmd.exe, CustomShellHost.exe) accessing suspicious executables hosted on WebDAV shares. This indicates an attacker may be exploiting Process.Start() search order manipulation to execute malicious code from attacker-controlled WebDAV servers instead of legitimate system binaries. The vulnerability allows unauthorized code execution through external control of file names or paths via WebDAV.
