A vulnerability exists in the Scheduler Service installed with PCM600. The service executes under the LocalSystem account while permissions are granted to standard PCM600 users through membership in the local users group. An attacker with local access and valid user credentials may exploit this vulnerability to elevate privileges and obtain control of the affected host. A vulnerability exists in the processing of PCM600 project archives files. Insufficient validation of archive entry paths may permit path traversal during extraction, potentially allowing files to be written to loca tions outside the intended extraction directory.
