CVE-2013-6128
CVSS v2.0
5.8
Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
WellinTech KingView versions prior to 6.53
KChartXY.ocx versions prior to 65.30.30000.10002
Description
The issue concerns the KCHARTXYLib.KChartXY ActiveX control, which does not properly restrict
SaveToFile method calls. This allows remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary files and subsequently execute arbitrary programs via a single pathname argument. A directory traversal attack can be used to exploit this issue.Recommendations
For WellinTech KingView versions prior to 6.53, update to version 6.53 or later.
For KChartXY.ocx versions prior to 65.30.30000.10002, update to version 65.30.30000.10002 or later.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
SaveToFile method in the KChartXY.ocx control to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploit
