It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-7581 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens Opcenter Execution Discrete. 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-2020-7581/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7581/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-7581","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7581/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-7581","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6pc5-ccr3-mpqp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Siemens industrial software","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Local attackers with administrative privileges can execute code with SYSTEM level privileges due to unquoted service paths in Siemens industrial applications.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[{"product":"opcenter_execution_discrete","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"opcenter_execution_foundation","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"opcenter_execution_process","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"opcenter_intelligence","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"opcenter_quality","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"opcenter_rd\\\u0026l","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"simatic_notifier_server","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"simatic_pcs_neo","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"simatic_step_7","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"simocode_es","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"soft_starter_es","vendor":"siemens"}],"cvss":{"score":6.7,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-428","name":"Unquoted Search Path or Element"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in Opcenter Execution Discrete (All versions \u003c V3.2), Opcenter Execution Foundation (All versions \u003c V3.2), Opcenter Execution Process (All versions \u003c V3.2), Opcenter Intelligence (All versions \u003c V3.3), Opcenter Quality (All versions \u003c V11.3), Opcenter RD\u0026L (V8.0), SIMATIC Notifier Server for Windows (All versions), SIMATIC PCS neo (All versions \u003c V3.0 SP1), SIMATIC STEP 7 (TIA Portal) V15 (All versions \u003c V15.1 Update 5), SIMATIC STEP 7 (TIA Portal) V16 (All versions \u003c V16 Update 2), SIMOCODE ES V15.1 (All versions \u003c V15.1 Update 4), SIMOCODE ES V16 (All versions \u003c V16 Update 1), Soft Starter ES V15.1 (All versions \u003c V15.1 Update 3), Soft Starter ES V16 (All versions \u003c V16 Update 1).
