Rockwell Studio 5000 Logix Designer Path Traversal (SD1783)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 327601

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote Windows host is affected by a path traversal vulnerability.

Description

The version of Rockwell Studio 5000 Logix Designer installed on the remote Windows host is affected by a path traversal vulnerability. The software does not sanitize or validate file names embedded in the ACD file structure during the project opening procedure, allowing path traversal sequences to escape the intended extraction directory.
An attacker could craft a malicious ACD project file that results in arbitrary files being written to attacker-controlled locations on the file system, potentially leading to code execution. (CVE-2026-9108)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Rockwell Studio 5000 Logix Designer version 32.05, 33.04, 34.04, 35.02, 36.01, or 37.00 (as applicable to the installed release branch), or later.
