GE Communicator, all versions prior to 4.0.517, contains two backdoor accounts with hardcoded credentials, which may allow control over the database. This service is inaccessible to attackers if Windows default firewall settings are used by the end user.
GE Communicator, all versions prior to 4.0.517, allows a non-administrative user to place malicious files within the installer file directory, which may allow an attacker to gain administrative privileges on a system during installation or upgrade.
GE Communicator, all versions prior to 4.0.517, allows a non-administrative user to replace the uninstaller with a malicious version, which could allow an attacker to gain administrator privileges to the system.
GE Communicator, all versions prior to 4.0.517, has a service running with system privileges that may allow an unprivileged user to perform certain administrative actions, which may allow the execution of scheduled scripts with system administrator privileges. This service is inaccessible to attackers if Windows default firewall settings are used by the end user.
GE Communicator, all versions prior to 4.0.517, allows an attacker to place malicious files within the working directory of the program, which may allow an attacker to manipulate widgets and UI elements.
GE Mark VIe, EX2100e, EX2100e_Reg, and LS2100e Versions 03.03.28C to 05.02.04C, EX2100e All versions prior to v04.09.00C, EX2100e_Reg All versions prior to v04.09.00C, and LS2100e All versions prior to v04.09.00C The affected versions of the application have a path traversal vulnerability that fails to restrict the ability of an attacker to gain access to restricted information.
Multiple instances of this vulnerability (Unsafe ActiveX Control Marked Safe For Scripting) have been identified in the third-party ActiveX object provided to GE iFIX versions 2.0 - 5.8 by Gigasoft. Only the independent use of the Gigasoft charting package outside the iFIX product may expose users to the reported vulnerability. The reported method shown to impact Internet Explorer is not exposed in the iFIX product, nor is the core functionality of the iFIX product known to be impacted.
A heap-based buffer overflow exists in the third-party product Gigasoft, v5 and prior, included in GE Communicator 3.15 and prior. A malicious HTML file that loads the ActiveX controls can trigger the vulnerability via unchecked function calls.
Java remote method invocation (RMI) input port in GE MDS PulseNET and MDS PulseNET Enterprise version 3.2.1 and prior may be exploited to allow unauthenticated users to launch applications and support remote code execution through web services.
