Vulnerability details

OpenPLC Runtime v3 contains an input validation flaw in the /upload-program-action endpoint: the epoch_time field supplied during program uploads is not validated and can be crafted to induce corruption of the programs database. After a successful malformed upload the runtime…

Mitigating Controls

Likely Mitigating Controls AI

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.

addresses: CWE-20

Security testing and developer training directly verify and enforce proper input validation, reducing exploitability of injection and malformed-data weaknesses.

addresses: CWE-20

Security testing and evaluation at multiple SDLC stages directly detects missing or flawed input validation, with the required remediation process ensuring fixes are applied.

addresses: CWE-664

Requires a managed development lifecycle process with integrity controls on changes, improving control of resources throughout their lifetime.

addresses: CWE-664

Requires designing resource lifetime controls that anticipate, withstand, and recover from stresses or attacks, mitigating improper resource control.

addresses: CWE-20

Directly implements checks on information inputs to reject invalid data before processing.

addresses: CWE-664

Directly enforces limited resource lifetime by requiring initiation from a known state and explicit termination, shrinking the window any long-lived resource weakness can be exploited.

addresses: CWE-20

Spam protection mechanisms perform filtering and detection on inbound/outbound messages, directly compensating for missing or weak input validation of unsolicited content.
