An issue was discovered in PHOENIX CONTACT PC Worx through 1.86, PC Worx Express through 1.86, and Config+ through 1.86. A manipulated PC Worx or Config+ project file could lead to an Out-of-bounds Read and remote code execution. The attacker needs to get access to an original PC Worx or Config+ project to be able to manipulate data inside. After manipulation, the attacker needs to exchange the original files with the manipulated ones on the application programming workstation.

After manipulation, the attacker needs to exchange the original files with the manipulated ones on the application programming workstation.

A manipulated PC Worx or Config+ project file could lead to arbitrary code execution due to insufficient input data validation.CVE-2019-16675 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 7.8 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Manipulated PC Worx or Config+ projects could lead to a remote code execution due to insufficient input data validation. The attacker needs to get access to an original PC Worx or Config+ project to be able to manipulate data inside the project folder. After manipulation the attacker needs to exchange the original files by the manipulated ones on the application programming workstation.
