Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
The encryption algorithm used to protect the configuration of user accounts, stored in the built-in user directory of PcVue projects, all versions prior to 17.0.0, is not strong enough for the level of protection required. A local attacker could alter the existing configuration and ultimately gain privileged access to the PcVue application.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in ARC Informatique PcVue SCADA/HMI software (all versions prior to 17.0.0) arises because the encryption algorithm protecting user-account configuration in the built-in user directory is cryptographically inadequate (CWE-326). A local attacker with low privileges can decrypt or tamper with the stored account configuration and ultimately obtain privileged access to the PcVue application. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV; the vendor CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.4 (High).
