Issue
Schneider Electric has become aware of a vulnerability in the Wonderware ArchestrA Logger component used within the PowerSCADA Expert 8.2 product.

Product Line
PowerSCADA Expert 8.2

Environment
Wonderware ArchestrA Logger component

Cause
The Wonderware ArchestrA Logger component exposes a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) interface for remote management. Some of the methods on this interface are susceptible to:

•    Remote Code Execution, which could allow an attacker to run arbitrary code in the context of a highly privileged account.
•    Memory Leaks, which could allow an attacker to exhaust the memory of the target machine and cause Denial of Service for applications running on the target machine.
•    Null Pointer Dereferences, which could allow an attacker to crash the logger process causing Denial of Service for logging and log-viewing operations.

Resolution


Schneider Electric has developed a patch which addresses these vulnerabilities.
Download, unzip and install the patch from the following location: (A new location must be provided before putting online)

Schneider Electric recommends ALL customers using the affected software packages to download and apply the relevant patch.

•    Customers are recommended to close System Management Console (SMC) and Log Viewer applications prior to applying this patch. If the applications are open customers may receive an error. To resolve this error please restart the System Management Console (SMC) or refresh the Log Viewer applications.
•    If PowerSCADA Expert 8.2 is reinstalled after this patch is applied, then the patch needs to be reinstalled after the PowerSCADA Expert 8.2 is reinstalled.
