EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CVSS v3 7.3 ATTENTION: Low Attack Complexity Vendor: Schneider Electric Equipment: FoxRTU Station Vulnerability: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') 2. RISK EVALUATION Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to perform remote code execution. 3. TECHNICAL DETAILS 3.1 AFFECTED PRODUCTS Schneider Electricreports that the following products are affected: FoxRTU Station: < 9.3.0 3.2 VULNERABILTY OVERVIEW 3.2.1 IMPROPER LIMITATION OF A PATHNAME TO A RESTRICTED DIRECTORY ('PATH TRAVERSAL') CWE-22 CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability exists that could result in remote code execution when an authenticated user executes a saved project file that has been tampered by a malicious actor. CVE-2024-2602 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 7.3 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/...

A Chinese threat actor infiltrated several IT and security companies in a bring-your-own VS code, with an eye to carrying out a supply-chain-based espionage attack.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.

This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.

**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is high (PR:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** To successfully exploit this vulnerability, an attacker or the targeted user would need to achieve a high level of control over a machine, as the attack requires access to processes typically restricted from average users. Essentially, the exploitation necessitates elevated privileges on the compromised machine due to the requirement of manipulating processes beyond the reach of standard user permissions.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is physical (AV:P). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker needs physical access to the victim's machine.
