Insecure password storage in User directory

Credentials of built-in users are insecurely stored in the User directory of PcVue projects, all versions prior to 17.0.0. A local attacker could retrieve users’ credentials.  Active Directory accounts are not affected by this vulnerability.

Weak encryption mechanism for User directory

The encryption algorithm used to protect the configuration of user accounts, stored in the built-in user directory of PcVue projects, all versions prior to 17.0.0, is not strong enough for the level of protection required. A local attacker could alter the existing configuration and ultimately gain privileged access to the PcVue application.

Missing security HTTP headers

Some HTTP security headers are not properly set by the web server when sending responses to the client application.

Missing origin validation in GraphicalData web service requests

A missing origin validation in WebSockets vulnerability affects the GraphicalData web services used by the WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue and SnapVue features of PcVue in version 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 included. It might allow a remote attacker to lure a successfully authenticated user to a malicious website. This vulnerability only affects the following two endpoints: GraphicalData/js/signalR/connect and GraphicalData/js/signalR/reconnect.

Server configuration details in HTTP headers

HTTP headers are added by the default configuration of IIS and ASP.net, and are not removed at the deployment phase of the webservices used by the WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue and SnapVue features of PcVue in version 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 included. It unnecessarily exposes sensitive information about the server configuration.

HTTP Host header vulnerability in WebClient and WebScheduler web apps

A HTTP Host header attack vulnerability affects WebClient and the WebScheduler web apps of PcVue in version 15.0.0 through 16.3.3 included, allowing a remote attacker to inject harmful payloads that manipulate server-side behavior. This vulnerability only affects the endpoints /Authentication/ExternalLogin, /Authentication/AuthorizationCodeCallback and /Authentication/Logout of the WebClient and WebScheduler web apps.

Use of vulnerable Resource Owner Password Credentials flow

The OAuth grant type Resource Owner Password Credentials (ROPC) flow is still used by the werbservices used by the WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue and Snapvue features of PcVue in version 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 included despite being deprecated. It might allow a remote attacker to steal user credentials.

XSS vulnerability upon unsuccessful authentication

An XSS vulnerability affects the OAuth web services used by the WebVue, WebScheduler, TouchVue and SnapVue features of PcVue in version 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 included. It might allow a remote attacker to trick a legitimate user into loading content from another site upon unsuccessful user authentication on an unknown application (unknown client_id). This vulnerability only affects the error page of the OAuth server.

Use of unsecure cookies for GraphicalData web service and WebClient web app

The Secure and SameSite attribute are missing in the GraphicalData web services and WebClient web app of PcVue in version 12.0.0 through 16.3.3 included.

Certificate validity not properly verified

The MQTT add-on of PcVue fails to verify that a remote device’s certificate has not already expired or has not yet become valid. This allows malicious devices to present certificates that are not rejected properly. The use of a client certificate reduces the risk for random devices to take advantage of this flaw.

Client Secret not checked with OAuth Password grant type

The Client secret is not checked when using the OAuth Password grant type. By exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker could connect to a web server using a client application not explicitly authorized as part of the OAuth deployment. Exploitation requires valid credentials and does not permit the attacker to bypass user privileges.

User credentials recorded in log files

User credentials (login & password) are inserted into log files when a user tries to authenticate using a version of a Web client that is not compatible with that of the PcVue Web back end. By exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker could retrieve the credentials of a user by accessing the Log File. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to the application.

Improper validation of packets sequencing

The sequence of packets received by a Networking server are not correctly checked. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to send specially crafted messages to force the application to stop.

Improper validation of payload elements

Some payload elements of the messages sent between two stations in a networking architecture are not properly checked on the receiving station allowing an attacker to execute unauthorized commands in the application.

ARC Informatique PcVue

The affected device stores sensitive information in cleartext, which may allow an authenticated user to access session data stored in the OAuth database belonging to legitimate users

A cleartext storage of sensitive information vulnerability exists in PcVue versions 8.10 through 15.2.3. This could allow an unauthorized user with access the email and short messaging service (SMS) accounts configuration files to discover the associated simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) account credentials and the SIM card PIN code. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an unauthorized user access to the underlying email account and SIM card.

An insertion of sensitive information into log file vulnerability exists in PcVue versions 15 through 15.2.2. This could allow a user with access to the log files to discover connection strings of data sources configured for the DbConnect, which could include credentials. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow other users unauthorized access to the underlying data sources.

Integer overflow in an unspecified ActiveX control in SVUIGrd.ocx in ARC Informatique PcVue 6.0 through 10.0, FrontVue, and PlantVue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large value for an integer parameter, leading to a buffer overflow.

Buffer overflow in an unspecified ActiveX control in aipgctl.ocx in ARC Informatique PcVue 6.0 through 10.0, FrontVue, and PlantVue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted HTML document.

An unspecified ActiveX control in SVUIGrd.ocx in ARC Informatique PcVue 6.0 through 10.0, FrontVue, and PlantVue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by using a crafted HTML document to obtain control of a function pointer.
