Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2020-12028 exists.\n\nAffected product: Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk View SE. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-12028/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-12028/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-12028","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-12028/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-12028","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-524h-35w7-86xp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"configuration_change","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Industrial HMI software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can access or modify remote data due to missing permission checks in FactoryTalk View SE handlers, requiring secure configuration.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"icscert","cpe":[{"product":"factorytalk_view","vendor":"rockwellautomation"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"},{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"In all versions of FactoryTalk View SEA remote, an authenticated attacker may be able to utilize certain handlers to interact with the data on the remote endpoint since those handlers do not enforce appropriate permissions.
