CVE-2026-1695: XSS vulnerability upon unsuccessful authentication

An XSS vulnerability affects the OAuth web services used by the WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue and SnapVue features of PcVue in version 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 included. It might allow a remote attacker to trick a legitimate user into loading content from another site upon unsuccessful user authentication on an unknown application (unknown client_id). This vulnerability only affects the error page of the OAuth server.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

PcVue has a medium-severity cross-site scripting issue in OAuth error handling. A remote attacker may trick a legitimate user into loading content from another site after an unsuccessful authentication attempt involving an unknown client_id. The issue is limited to the OAuth server error page.

Executive priority

Treat as a moderate-priority remediation item, especially for internet-accessible PcVue environments. The issue is not reported as actively exploited, but it affects authentication-adjacent web components in industrial software and should be tracked through normal vulnerability management.

Technical view

CVE-2026-1695 is CWE-79 affecting OAuth web services used by PcVue WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue, and SnapVue. Versions 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 are listed as affected. CVSS v4.0 score is 5.3. Exploitation requires user interaction and impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability at low levels.

Likely exposure

Organizations using PcVue 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 with OAuth-backed WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue, or SnapVue features may be exposed. Exposure is most relevant where users can reach the OAuth authentication flow and error page.

Exploitation context

No active exploitation is indicated in the provided sources, and the CVE is not listed as KEV. The attack scenario depends on tricking a legitimate user and occurs on unsuccessful authentication for an unknown application/client_id.

Researcher notes

Evidence states the vulnerability only affects the OAuth server error page. The source bundle does not provide exploit details, fixed versions, or specific mitigations beyond the vendor advisory reference. Avoid assuming impact outside the listed PcVue features and versions.

Mitigation direction

  • Review PcVue security advisory SB2026-2 for official remediation guidance.
  • Inventory PcVue deployments and identify versions 12.0.0 through 16.3.3.
  • Restrict access to PcVue OAuth interfaces where operationally feasible.
  • Educate users not to follow unexpected authentication links.
  • Monitor vendor guidance for patches or configuration mitigations.

Validation and detection

  • Confirm whether WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue, or SnapVue are enabled.
  • Check deployed PcVue versions against 12.0.0 through 16.3.3.
  • Review OAuth server logs for unusual failed authentication requests.
  • Verify remediation status against the vendor advisory.
  • Document whether OAuth error pages are externally reachable.
