Studio 5000 Logix Designer 30.01.00 - 'FactoryTalk Activation Service' Unquoted Service Path

Studio 5000 Logix Designer 30.01.00 contains an unquoted service path vulnerability in the FactoryTalk Activation Service that allows local users to potentially execute code with elevated privileges. Attackers can exploit the unquoted path in C:\Program Files (x86)\Rockwell Software\FactoryTalk Activation\ to inject malicious code that would execute with LocalSystem permissions.

Studio 5000 Logix Designer® – Multiple Vulnerabilities

A remote code execution security issue exists within Studio 5000 Logix Designer® due to incorrect authorization on a configuration file. This can allow any authenticated user to modify the paths of external tools configured within the application. If exploited, an attacker could alter the configuration to point to a malicious executable, resulting in arbitrary code execution when any user interacts with the external tools functionality.

Studio 5000 Logix Designer® – Multiple Vulnerabilities

A code execution security issue exists within Studio 5000 Logix Designer® due to an unquoted search path in the External Tools configuration. The executable paths specified in the external tools configuration file are not properly quoted, and because these paths contain spaces, the operating system may resolve them to unintended executables placed earlier in the search order. If exploited, an attacker could plant a malicious executable in a location within the search path, resulting in arbitrary code execution with the same permissions of the user running the application.

Studio 5000 Logix Designer® – Multiple Vulnerabilities

A path traversal security issue exists within Studio 5000 Logix Designer® due to improper limitation of file paths within ACD project files. The software does not sanitize or validate file names embedded in the ACD file structure during the project opening procedure, allowing path traversal sequences to escape the intended extraction directory. If exploited, an attacker could craft a malicious ACD project file that results in arbitrary files being written to attacker-controlled locations on the file system, potentially leading to code execution.

Studio 5000 ® Simulation Interface SSRF

A local server-side request forgery (SSRF) security issue exists within Studio 5000® Simulation Interface™ via the API. This vulnerability allows any Windows user on the system to trigger outbound SMB requests, enabling the capture of NTLM hashes.

Studio 5000 ® Simulation Interface Local Code Execution

A local code execution security issue exists within Studio 5000® Simulation Interface™ via the API. This vulnerability allows any Windows user on the system to extract files using path traversal sequences, resulting in execution of scripts with Administrator privileges on system reboot.

Studio 5000 Logix Designer® – Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerability

A security issues exists within Studio 5000 Logix Designer due to unsafe handling of environment variables. If the specified path lacks a valid file, Logix Designer crashes; However, it may be possible to execute malicious code without triggering a crash.

Rockwell Automation Studio 5000 Logix Designer Versions 21 and later, and RSLogix 5000 Versions 16 through 20 use a key to verify Logix controllers are communicating with Rockwell Automation CompactLogix 1768, 1769, 5370, 5380, 5480: ControlLogix 5550, 5560, 5570, 5580; DriveLogix 5560, 5730, 1794-L34; Compact GuardLogix 5370, 5380; GuardLogix 5570, 5580; SoftLogix 5800. Rockwell Automation Studio 5000 Logix Designer Versions 21 and later and RSLogix 5000: Versions 16 through 20 are vulnerable because an unauthenticated attacker could bypass this verification mechanism and authenticate with Rockwell Automation CompactLogix 1768, 1769, 5370, 5380, 5480: ControlLogix 5550, 5560, 5570, 5580; DriveLogix 5560, 5730, 1794-L34; Compact GuardLogix 5370, 5380; GuardLogix 5570, 5580; SoftLogix 5800.

Rockwell Automation Studio 5000 Logix Emulate Vulnerable to a Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Rockwell Automation Studio 5000 Logix Emulate software.  Users are granted elevated permissions on certain product services when the software is installed. Due to this misconfiguration, a malicious user could potentially achieve remote code execution on the targeted software.

Products that use EDS Subsystem: Version 28.0.1 and prior (FactoryTalk Linx software (Previously called RSLinx Enterprise): Versions 6.00, 6.10, and 6.11, RSLinx Classic: Version 4.11.00 and prior, RSNetWorx software: Version 28.00.00 and prior, Studio 5000 Logix Designer software: Version 32 and prior) is vulnerable. A memory corruption vulnerability exists in the algorithm that matches square brackets in the EDS subsystem. This may allow an attacker to craft specialized EDS files to crash the EDSParser COM object, leading to denial-of-service conditions.

Products that use EDS Subsystem: Version 28.0.1 and prior (FactoryTalk Linx software (Previously called RSLinx Enterprise): Versions 6.00, 6.10, and 6.11, RSLinx Classic: Version 4.11.00 and prior, RSNetWorx software: Version 28.00.00 and prior, Studio 5000 Logix Designer software: Version 32 and prior) is vulnerable.The EDS subsystem does not provide adequate input sanitation, which may allow an attacker to craft specialized EDS files to inject SQL queries and manipulate the database storing the EDS files. This can lead to denial-of-service conditions.

Rockwell Automation Logix Designer Studio 5000 Versions 32.00, 32.01, and 32.02 vulnerable to an xml external entity (XXE) vulnerability, which may allow an attacker to view hostnames or other resources from the program.
