CVE-2020-25238

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: PCS neo (Administration Console) versions prior to V3.1 TIA Portal versions V15 through V16

Description: A vulnerability has been identified that could allow a local attacker to execute code with SYSTEM privileges by manipulating certain files in specific folders. The issue can be exploited by an attacker with a valid account and limited access rights on the system.

Recommendations: For PCS neo (Administration Console) versions prior to V3.1, update to version V3.1 or later to resolve the issue. For TIA Portal versions V15 through V16, update to a version later than V16 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive folders and files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
