SUBNET PowerSYSTEM Center

CVSS 6.5 MEDIUM

Risk Summary

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to upload malicious scripts or perform a denial-of-service type attack.

Remediations

  • SUBNET Solutions has fixed these issues by enabling a file integrity check on uploaded images and anti-forgery tokens to prevent replay attacks. The fix was introduced in PowerSYSTEM Center update 12 as well as Update 8+Hotfix (both identified by release number 5.12.2305.10101, which can be located in Settings/Overview/Version).
  • SUBNET Solutions recommends users to follow the following workarounds:
  • Users should verify that SVG files do not contain HTML elements or scripts and validate that JPG and PNG files are not SVG files.
  • Users should verify network security rules to ensure that outbound connections to the internet are not possible.
  • If the above cannot be performed or notifications are not required, disable email notifications for reports from PowerSYSTEM Center.
  • Monitor user activity and ensure application control rules only allow preauthorized executables to run.
  • Deny users to run other executables on client access servers (PowerSYSTEM Center front end access point).
