Description
A vulnerability has been identified in SICAM SIAPP SDK (All versions < V2.1.7). The affected application performs file deletion without properly validating the file path or target. An attacker could delete files or sockets that the affected process has permission to remove, potentially resulting in denial of service or service disruption.

AI Analysis

Impact

The SICAM SIAPP SDK deletes files or sockets without validating the file path or target. An attacker who can influence the deletion operation may remove any file or socket that the process is permitted to delete, leading to denial of service or service disruption. This vulnerability maps to CWE-73, the improper validation of a path causing unintended file operations.

Affected Systems

Siemens SICAM SIAPP SDK, all versions earlier than 2.1.7.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.9 indicates moderate severity. EPSS is below 1%, suggesting a low probability of exploitation in the wild. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and no remote exploitation vectors are disclosed. Likely exploitation requires the attacker to run code on or provide input to the SDK on the target system, making it a local or privilege‑elevated threat. The impact is limited to files and sockets that the SDK process can delete, but removal of critical files could interrupt critical services.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the SDK to version 2.1.7 or later, adding proper path validation that mitigates the CWE‑73 weakness.
  • Implement strict file‑path validation in the SDK usage, allowing only whitelisted directories to be targeted, to address the CWE‑73 improper path validation.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not feasible, run the SDK with the least privilege necessary so that even if a deletion request is processed, it cannot remove critical system files, thereby limiting the impact of the CWE‑73 flaw.
