Discussion

Advantech ICSA-18-296-01 WebAccess Multiple Security Vulnerabilities

Advantech WebAccess is prone to the following security vulnerabilities:

1. A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability
2. A directory-traversal vulnerability
3. An arbitrary-file-deletion vulnerability
4. A remote-privilege escalation vulnerability

An attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application, modify and delete files, use directory-traversal sequences (â??../â??) to retrieve arbitrary files, escalate privileges and perform certain unauthorized actions. This may aid in further attacks.

Advantech WebAccess 8.3.1 and prior versions are vulnerable.
