Descriptions

In Omron CX-Supervisor Versions 3.30 and prior, access of uninitialized pointer vulnerabilities can be exploited when CX Supervisor indirectly calls an initialized pointer when parsing malformed packets.

En las versiones 3.30 y anteriores de Omron CX-Supervisor, se puede explotan vulnerabilidades de acceso de puntero no inicializado cuando CX-Supervisor llama de forma indirecta a un puntero no inicializado al analizar paquetes mal formados.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of OMRON CX-Supervisor. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of SCS project files. The issue results from the lack of proper initialization of a pointer prior to accessing it. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
