DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in CoDeSys,
which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service) and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) An integer overflow error in the Gateway service when processing
certain requests can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow via a specially crafted packet sent to TCP port 1217.

2) A boundary error in the Control service when processing web
requests can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via
an overly long URL sent to TCP port 8080.

3) A NULL pointer dereference error in the CmbWebserver.dll module of
the Control service when processing HTTP POST requests can be
exploited to deny processing further requests via a specially crafted
"Content-Length" header sent to TCP port 8080.

4) A second NULL pointer dereference error in the CmbWebserver.dll
module of the Control service when processing web requests can be
exploited to deny processing further requests by sending a request
with an unknown HTTP method to TCP port 8080.

5) An error in the Control service when processing web requests
containing a non-existent directory can be exploited to create
arbitrary directories within the webroot via requests sent to TCP
port 8080.

Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities #1 and #2 allows execution
of arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 3.4 SP4 Patch 2. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted hosts only.
