CVE-2025-59887 is a high-severity vulnerability in the Eaton UPS Companion (EUC) software installer caused by improper authentication/validation of library files during load. The installer loads a required library (DLL) from an insecure/uncontrolled search path, enabling search-order hijacking (malicious DLL substitution) if an attacker can tamper with or place a crafted library alongside/in a searched directory for the installer. Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution in the context of the installer process. Eaton’s advisory indicates EUC versions prior to 3.0 are affected and that the issue was fixed in EUC 3.0 (published/fixed Dec 26, 2025).
