Vulnerabilities

ProficySCADA for iOS 5.0.25920 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows attackers to crash the application by manipulating the password input field. Attackers can overwrite the password field with 257 bytes of repeated characters to trigger an application crash and prevent successful authentication.

Even if the authentication fails for local service authentication, the requested command could still execute regardless of authentication status.

An unauthorized user could alter or write files with full control over the path and content of the file.

An unauthorized user could possibly delete any file on the system.

An unauthorized user could be able to read any file on the system, potentially exposing sensitive information.

An unauthorized user with network access and the decryption key could decrypt sensitive data, such as usernames and passwords.

Emerson Electric's Proficy Machine Edition Version 9.00 and prior is vulnerable to CWE-434 Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type, and will upload any file written into the PLC logic folder to the connected PLC.

Emerson Electric's Proficy Machine Edition Version 9.00 and prior is vulenrable to CWE-353 Missing Support for Integrity Check, and has no authentication or authorization of data packets after establishing a connection for the SRTP protocol.

Emerson Electric's Proficy Machine Edition Version 9.00 and prior is vulenrable to CWE-284 Improper Access Control, and stores project data in a directory with improper access control lists.

Emerson Electric's Proficy Machine Edition Version 9.00 and prior is vulenrable to CWE-347 Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature, and does not properly verify compiled logic (PDT files) and data blocks data (BLD/BLK files).

Emerson Electric's Proficy Machine Edition Version 9.00 and prior is vulnerable to CWE-345 Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity, and can display logic that is different than the compiled logic.

Emerson Electric's Proficy Machine Edition Version 9.80 and prior is vulnerable to CWE-29 Path Traversal: '\..\Filename', also known as a ZipSlip attack, through an upload procedure which enables attackers to implant a malicious .BLZ file on the PLC. The file can transfer through the engineering station onto Windows…

Exploitation of this vulnerability may result in local privilege escalation and code execution. GE maintains exploitation of this vulnerability is only possible if the attacker has login access to a machine actively running CIMPLICITY, the CIMPLICITY server is not already running a project, and the server is licensed…

Improper Input Validation in Emerson GE Automation Proficy Machine Edition v8.0 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service and application crash via crafted traffic from a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack to the component "FrameworX.exe"in the module "fxVPStatcTcp.dll".

Buffer Overflow in Emerson GE Automation Proficy Machine Edition v8.0 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service and application crash via crafted traffic from a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack to the component "FrameworX.exe" in the module "MSVCR100.dll".

Emerson GE Automation Proficy Machine Edition 8.0 allows an access violation and application crash via crafted traffic from a remote device, as demonstrated by an RX7i device.

A Stack-based Buffer Overflow issue was discovered in GE CIMPLICITY Versions 9.0 and prior. A function reads a packet to indicate the next packet length. The next packet length is not verified, allowing a buffer overwrite that could lead to an arbitrary remote code execution.

The (1) CimView and (2) CimEdit components in GE Proficy HMI/SCADA-CIMPLICITY 8.2 and earlier allow remote attackers to gain privileges via a crafted CIMPLICITY screen (aka .CIM) file.

The CIMPLICITY Web-based access component, CimWebServer, does not check the location of shell files being loaded into the system. By modifying the source location, an attacker could send shell code to the CimWebServer which would deploy the nefarious files as part of any SCADA project. This could allow the attacker to…

Directory traversal vulnerability in gefebt.exe in the WebView CimWeb components in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy HMI/SCADA - CIMPLICITY through 8.2 SIM 24, and Proficy Process Systems with CIMPLICITY, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTTP request, aka ZDI-CAN-1622.

The (1) Catapult DNP3 I/O driver before 7.2.0.60 and the (2) GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy DNP3 I/O driver before 7.20k, as used in DNPDrv.exe (aka the DNP master station server) in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy HMI/SCADA - CIMPLICITY and iFIX, allow physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service…

The (1) Catapult DNP3 I/O driver before 7.2.0.60 and the (2) GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy DNP3 I/O driver before 7.20k, as used in DNPDrv.exe (aka the DNP master station server) in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy HMI/SCADA - CIMPLICITY and iFIX, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop)…

Multiple buffer overflows in CimWebServer.exe in the WebView component in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy HMI/SCADA - CIMPLICITY before 8.0 SIM 27, 8.1 before SIM 25, and 8.2 before SIM 19, and Proficy Process Systems with CIMPLICITY, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted data in packets to TCP…

CimWebServer in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy HMI/SCADA - CIMPLICITY 4.01 through 8.0, and Proficy Process Systems with CIMPLICITY, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a crafted packet.

Directory traversal vulnerability in substitute.bcl in the WebView CimWeb subsystem in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy HMI/SCADA - CIMPLICITY 4.01 through 8.0, and Proficy Process Systems with CIMPLICITY, allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a crafted packet.
