Descriptions

Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere vulnerability in ICONICS GENESIS64 versions 10.97.1 and prior and Mitsubishi Electric MC Works64 versions 4.04E (10.95.210.01) and prior allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute an arbitrary malicious code by leading a user to load a monitoring screen file including malicious script codes.

Una vulnerabilidad de Inclusión de Funcionalidad de la Esfera de Control No Confiable en ICONICS GENESIS64 versiones 10.97.1 y anteriores y Mitsubishi Electric MC Works64 versiones 4.04E (10.95.210.01) y anteriores permite a un atacante no autenticado ejecutar un código malicioso arbitrario al conllevar a un usuario a cargar un archivo de pantalla de monitoreo que incluye códigos de script maliciosos

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of ICONICS GENESIS64. 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 GDFX files. 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 ICONICS_ADMIN user.
