The vulnerability is caused due to an input sanitation error in the Common.dll library when processing the "messageID" field of certain requests. This can be exploited to create arbitrary files with controlled content via directory traversal sequences in a specially crafted packet sent to TCP port 2398. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but requires guessing the "InstallationID" parameter, which is based on a Windows time value. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 7.0.2.61213. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict access to trusted hosts only.
