Pilz: Vulnerability in PASvisu and PMI v8xx

Published Jan 30, 2024 · Updated Apr 10, 2025 · Revision 4

Summary

Multiple Pilz products are affected by stored cross-site-scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities may enable an attacker to gain full control over the system.

Update: 27.02.2024 Fix typo in advisory title

Details

Impact
The vulnerabilities allow an attacker to inject malicious Javascript code into the system. With PASvisu
Builder in a worst-case scenario this can lead to execution of arbitrary code using the privileges of the
user running the affected software. With PASvisu Runtime (including PMI v8xx) in a worst-case
scenario this could have an impact on the controlled automation application.

Mitigation
* Only use project files from trustworthy sources.
* Protect project files against modification by unauthorized users.
* PASvisu Runtime: Limit network access to legitimate connections by using a firewall or similar
measures. Use password protection on the online project.

Remediation
Install the fixed product version as soon as it is available. Please visit the Pilz eShop
