Descriptions

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Inductive Automation Ignition 8.1.15 (b2022030114). Although authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability, the existing authentication mechanism can be bypassed. The specific flaw exists within com.inductiveautomation.metro.impl. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-17265.

Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en las instalaciones afectadas de Inductive Automation Ignition versión 8.1.15 (b2022030114). Aunque la autenticación es necesaria para explotar esta vulnerabilidad, el mecanismo de autenticación presente puede ser evitado. El fallo específico se presenta en com.inductiveautomation.metro.impl. El problema es debido a una falta de comprobación apropiada de los datos suministrados por el usuario, lo que puede resultar en una deserialización de datos no confiables. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto de SYSTEM. Era ZDI-CAN-17265
