Description
Eidos is an extensible framework for Personal Data Management. Versions 0.21.0 and below contain a one-click remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by embedding a specially crafted eidos: URL on any website, including a malicious one they control. When a victim visits such a site or clicks on the link, the browser triggers the app’s custom URL handler (eidos:), causing the Eidos application to launch and process the URL, leading to remote code execution on the victim’s machine. This issue does not have a fix as of October 3, 2025

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability exists in Eidos versions 0.21.0 and below, where an attacker can craft a special eidos: URL and embed it on any website. When a user visits that website or clicks the link, the browser triggers the Eidos application's custom URL handler, causing the application to launch and execute the attacker's code remotely on the victim's machine.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

The vulnerability allows remote code execution on the victim's machine without requiring privileges, potentially leading to full compromise of the affected system, including unauthorized access, data theft, or system damage.


What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?

Since there is no fix available as of October 3, 2025, immediate mitigation steps include avoiding visiting untrusted websites or clicking on suspicious eidos: URLs, disabling or restricting the Eidos application's custom URL handler if possible, and educating users about the risk of clicking on unknown links. Monitoring for any unusual application launches triggered by eidos: URLs may also help reduce risk.
