DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in GE Intelligent Platforms
products, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose
certain sensitive information and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) An unspecified error exists within the WebView CimWeb component
(substitute.bcl) and can be exploited to disclose arbitrary files via
directory traversal attacks.

2) An unspecified error exists in CimWebServer when processing
packets and can be exploited to e.g. run arbitrary commands by
sending a specially-crafted packet.

NOTE: CIMPLICITY built-in Web server component is not enabled by
default.

The vulnerabilities are reported in the following products:
* Proficy HMI/SCADA – CIMPLICITY version 4.01 and greater
