An issue was discovered in 3S-Smart CODESYS V3 through 3.5.12.30. A user with low privileges can take full control over the runtime.
A remote, authenticated attacker could utilize the control program of the CODESYS Control runtime system to use the vulnerability in order to read and modify the configuration file(s) of the affected products.
In CODESYS V3 products in all versions prior V3.5.16.0 containing the CmpUserMgr, the CODESYS Control runtime system stores the online communication passwords using a weak hashing algorithm. This can be used by a local attacker with low privileges to gain full control of the device.
An unauthenticated, remote attacker can disrupt existing communication channels between CODESYS products by guessing a valid channel ID and injecting packets. This results in the communication channel to be closed.
In CODESYS Gateway V3 before 3.5.17.10, there is a NULL Pointer Dereference. Crafted communication requests may cause a Null pointer dereference in the affected CODESYS products and may result in a denial-of-service condition.
In Pilz PMC programming tool 3.x before 3.5.17 (based on CODESYS Development System), a user's password may be changed by an attacker without knowledge of the current password.
CODESYS Control runtime system before 3.5.16.10 allows Uncontrolled Memory Allocation.
In CODESYS V3 web server before 3.5.17.10, files or directories are accessible to External Parties.
A remote, unauthenticated attacker can send a specific crafted HTTP or HTTPS requests causing a buffer over-read resulting in a crash of the webserver of the CODESYS Control runtime system.
CODESYS Gateway 3 before 3.5.16.70 has a NULL pointer dereference that may result in a denial of service (DoS).
An exploitable memory corruption vulnerability exists in the Name Service Client functionality of 3S-Smart Software Solutions CODESYS GatewayService. A specially crafted packet can cause a large memcpy, resulting in an access violation and termination of the process. An attacker can send a packet to a device running the GatewayService.exe to trigger this vulnerability. All variants of the CODESYS V3 products in all versions prior V3.5.16.10 containing the CmpRouter or CmpRouterEmbedded component are affected, regardless of the CPU type or operating system: CODESYS Control for BeagleBone, CODESYS Control for emPC-A/iMX6, CODESYS Control for IOT2000, CODESYS Control for Linux, CODESYS Control for PLCnext, CODESYS Control for PFC100, CODESYS Control for PFC200, CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi, CODESYS Control RTE V3, CODESYS Control RTE V3 (for Beckhoff CX), CODESYS Control Win V3 (also part of the CODESYS Development System setup), CODESYS Control V3 Runtime System Toolkit, CODESYS V3 Embedded Target Visu Toolkit, CODESYS V3 Remote Target Visu Toolkit, CODESYS V3 Safety SIL2, CODESYS Edge Gateway V3, CODESYS Gateway V3, CODESYS HMI V3, CODESYS OPC Server V3, CODESYS PLCHandler SDK, CODESYS V3 Simulation Runtime (part of the CODESYS Development System).
Use of Insufficiently Random Values exists in CODESYS V3 products versions prior V3.5.14.0.
Improper Communication Address Filtering exists in CODESYS V3 products versions prior V3.5.14.0.
CODESYS V3 web server, all versions prior to 3.5.14.10, allows an attacker to send specially crafted http or https requests which may allow access to files outside the restricted working directory of the controller.
An issue was discovered in 3S-Smart CODESYS V3 products. A crafted communication request may cause uncontrolled memory allocations in the affected CODESYS products and may result in a denial-of-service condition. All variants of the following CODESYS V3 products in all versions prior to v3.5.14.20 that contain the CmpGateway component are affected, regardless of the CPU type or operating system: CODESYS Control for BeagleBone, CODESYS Control for emPC-A/iMX6, CODESYS Control for IOT2000, CODESYS Control for Linux, CODESYS Control for PFC100, CODESYS Control for PFC200, CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi, CODESYS Control V3 Runtime System Toolkit, CODESYS Gateway V3, CODESYS V3 Development System.
An issue was discovered in 3S-Smart CODESYS before 3.5.15.0 . Crafted network packets cause the Control Runtime to crash.
CODESYS Control Runtime system before 3.5.17.0 has improper input validation. Attackers can send crafted communication packets to change the router's addressing scheme and may re-route, add, remove or change low level communication packages.
An authenticated, remote attacker can gain access to a dereferenced pointer contained in a request. The accesses can subsequently lead to local overwriting of memory in the CmpTraceMgr, whereby the attacker can neither gain the values read internally nor control the values to be written. If invalid memory is accessed, this results in a crash.
An authenticated remote attacker can cause a null pointer dereference in the CmpSettings component of the affected CODESYS products which leads to a crash.
An issue was discovered in CODESYS Development System before 3.5.16.0. CODESYS WebVisu and CODESYS Remote TargetVisu are susceptible to privilege escalation.
Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources so this is considered safe. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.0h (Affected 1.1.0-1.1.0g). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2o (Affected 1.0.2b-1.0.2n).
CODESYS Control V3, Gateway V3, and HMI V3 before 3.5.15.30 allow uncontrolled memory allocation which can result in a remote denial of service condition.
3S-Smart Software Solutions GmbH CODESYS V3 OPC UA Server, all versions 3.5.11.0 to 3.5.15.0, allows an attacker to send crafted requests from a trusted OPC UA client that cause a NULL pointer dereference, which may trigger a denial-of-service condition.
While parsing an IPAddressFamily extension in an X.509 certificate, it is possible to do a one-byte overread. This would result in an incorrect text display of the certificate. This bug has been present since 2006 and is present in all versions of OpenSSL before 1.0.2m and 1.1.0g.
In Pilz PMC programming tool 3.x before 3.5.17 (based on CODESYS Development System), an attacker can identify valid usernames.
Untrusted search path vulnerability in the pthread_win32_process_attach_np function in pthreadGC2.dll in Pthreads-win32 2.8.0 allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse quserex.dll file in the current working directory. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
