DESCRIPTION:
Digital Bond has reported two vulnerabilities in CoDeSys, which can
be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) An error within the authentication mechanism does not properly
restrict access to the device and can be exploited to perform certain
administrative tasks.

2) Certain input passed to the file transfer functionality is not
properly verified before being used to access files. This can be
exploited to read, delete, or upload arbitrary files via directory
traversal sequences.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 2.3.x and 2.4.x.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches (please contact the vendor for more information).

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reid Wightman, Digital Bond.
