CVE-2025-1701
Local Privilege Escalation in MIM Admin Service
- Published
- Updated
- Reserved

Description
CVE-2025-1701 is a high-severity vulnerability in the MIM Admin service. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted request over the RMI interface to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the MIM Admin service. The RMI interface is only accessible locally (listening on 127.0.0.1), limiting the attack vector to the local machine. This means that in a properly configured hospital environment, an attacker must have already compromised the network and additionally compromised the system where the MIM Admin service is running. From there, attackers with sufficient knowledge of MIM's implementation, library usage, and functionality with access to extend the MIM RMI library could force the MIM Admin service to run commands on the local machine with its privileges. Users of MIM Software products exposed via RDP or multi-user application virtualization system should take note that the system being exposed is the environment hosting the virtualized MIM client. This issue affects MIM Admin Service: before 7.2.13, 7.3.8, 7.4.3

What to do
Solution: It is recommended that customers update to a patched version as soon as possible.
Workaround: We strongly recommend upgrading to the latest available version. For customers who are unable or need a temporary workaround, the following steps may be taken. Customers who are not using a Fixed License may use a system firewall, endpoint management, or network control system to block all connections to port 5981 from localhost on all MIM systems. This will disable the ability for MIM clients to start and stop MIM services from the Network Preferences window, however services may still be managed directly from the OS. Customers who are using a Fixed License may contact MIM support and switch their license to either a Local or Concurrent license, and then proceed to block all connections to port 5981 from localhost.
