Multiple absolute path traversal vulnerabilities in National Instruments cwui.ocx, as used in National Instruments LabWindows/CVI 2012 SP1 and earlier, National Instruments LabVIEW 2012 SP1 and earlier, the Data Analysis component in ABB DataManager 1 through 6.3.6, and other products allow remote attackers to create and execute arbitrary files via a full pathname in an argument to the ExportStyle method in the (1) CWNumEdit, (2) CWGraph, (3) CWBoolean, (4) CWSlide, or (5) CWKnob ActiveX control, in conjunction with file content in the (a) Caption or (b) FormatString property value.
AnalysisAI
Multiple absolute path traversal vulnerabilities in National Instruments cwui.ocx, as used in National Instruments LabWindows/CVI 2012 SP1 and earlier, National Instruments LabVIEW 2012 SP1 and. Rated critical severity (CVSS 9.3), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable. No vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Path Traversal (CWE-22), which allows attackers to access files and directories outside the intended path. Multiple absolute path traversal vulnerabilities in National Instruments cwui.ocx, as used in National Instruments LabWindows/CVI 2012 SP1 and earlier, National Instruments LabVIEW 2012 SP1 and earlier, the Data Analysis component in ABB DataManager 1 through 6.3.6, and other products allow remote attackers to create and execute arbitrary files via a full pathname in an argument to the ExportStyle method in the (1) CWNumEdit, (2) CWGraph, (3) CWBoolean, (4) CWSlide, or (5) CWKnob ActiveX control, in conjunction with file content in the (a) Caption or (b) FormatString property value. Affected products include: Ni Labview, Ni Labwindows, Ni Measurementstudio, Ni Teststand, Abb Datamanager. Version information: through 6.3.6.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Validate and canonicalize file paths. Use chroot or sandboxing. Reject input containing path separators or '../' sequences.
