CVE-2024-45824Network attack vector

Unauthenticated code execution via chained input flaws

Published Sep 12, 2024 · Updated Sep 12, 2024

Command injection in Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk View Site Edition 12.0 through 14.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Rockwell Automation reports that exploitation chains path traversal, command injection, and cross-site scripting flaws, but the affected endpoint and input-processing locus are undisclosed. Network access to the affected service is sufficient, and successful exploitation runs code in the product's context without authentication.
