LAquis SCADA Versions 4.1.0.3870 and prior has a path traversal vulnerability, which may allow remote code execution.
LAquis SCADA en versiones 4.1.0.3870 y anteriores tiene una vulnerabilidad de salto de directorio que podría permitir la ejecución remota de código.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of LAquis SCADA Software. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
