A low-privileged remote attacker could exploit the vulnerability and inject additional system commands via file system libraries which could give the attacker full control of the device.

In CODESYS V2 PLCWinNT and Runtime Toolkit 32 in versions prior to V2.4.7.57 password protection is not enabled by default and there is no information or prompt to enable password protection at login in case no password is set at the controller.

In the CODESYS Development System multiple components in multiple versions transmit the passwords for the communication between clients and servers unprotected.

A crafted request may cause a read access to an uninitialized pointer in CODESYS V2 Runtime Toolkit 32 Bit full and PLCWinNT prior to versions V2.4.7.56, resulting in a denial-of-service condition.

A crafted request with invalid offsets may cause an out-of-bounds read or write access in CODESYS V2 Runtime Toolkit 32 Bit full and PLCWinNT prior to versions V2.4.7.56, resulting in a denial-of-service condition or local memory overwrite.

In CODESYS V2 Runtime Toolkit 32 Bit full and PLCWinNT prior to versions V2.4.7.56 unauthenticated crafted invalid requests may result in several denial-of-service conditions. Running PLC programs may be stopped, memory may be leaked, or further communication clients may be blocked from accessing the PLC.

CODESYS V2 runtime system before 2.4.7.55 has Improper Input Validation.
