The affected products are vulnerable to an uncaught exception that could allow an unauthenticated attacker to remotely crash core PI services resulting in a denial-of-service.

Remedy

AVEVA recommends that organizations evaluate the impact of this vulnerability based on their operational environment, architecture, and product implementation. Users of affected product versions should apply security updates to mitigate the risk of exploit. All impacted versions of PI Data Archive can be fixed by upgrading to PI Server 2024 R2 or later available here: https://softwaresupportsp.aveva.com/en-US/downloads/products/details/8c9b0e8c-eb68-481f-b420-c87a253a4172 . PI Data Archive delivered by PI Server 2018 SP3 Patch 7 and prior can be fixed by upgrading to PI Server 2018 SP3 Patch 8 or higher available here: https://softwaresupportsp.aveva.com/en-US/downloads/products/details/79492560-7e4c-4800-8bd7-40cce61a17d2 . The following general defensive measures are recommended: * Monitor liveness of services listed in your installation’s “\PI\adm\pisrvstart.bat”. * Set the PI Data Archive Subsystem services to automatically restart. * PI Data Archive nodes should limit port 5450 inbound access to trusted workstations, users, and software.

The vulnerability, if exploited, could allow an attacker with Event Log Reader (S-1-5-32-573) privileges to obtain proxy details, including URL and proxy credentials, from the PI to CONNECT event log files. This could enable unauthorized access to the proxy server.

Remedy

AVEVA recommends that organizations evaluate the impact of this vulnerability based on their operational environment, architecture, and product implementation.  * Users of affected product versions should apply security updates to mitigate the risk of proxy details exposure in newly generated PI to CONNECT Agent event logs.  * Users who have used affected product versions, should review existing PI to CONNECT Agent event logs (live/backups/copies) for exposed proxy connection details and consider purging the sensitive data from logs and/or configuring new credentials for access to the proxy service. The following general defensive measures are recommended:  * Remove use of plain text passwords in proxy URLs. Alternatively, if passwords are required by the proxy, then use least-privilege credentials.  * Ensure only trusted users are given Event Log Reader (S-1-5-32-573) privileges on hosts where PI to CONNECT is installed.  * Review existing PI to CONNECT event logs (live/backups/copies) for exposed proxy connection details and consider purging the sensitive data from logs and/or configuring new credentials for access to the proxy service. All affected versions can be fixed by upgrading to PI to CONNECT Agent v2.5.2790 or higher. The latest version of the agent can be downloaded from the CONNECT Data Services Portal here: [ https://www.aveva.com/content/dam/aveva/documents/support/cyber-security-updates/SecurityBulletin_AVEVA-2026-003.pdf .

Remedy

AVEVA recommends that organizations evaluate the impact of this vulnerability based on their operational environment, architecture, and product implementation. Users using the affected product versions should take the following actions to mitigate the risk of exploit: * Apply AVEVA Edge 2023 R2 P01 https://softwaresupportsp.aveva.com/en-US/downloads/products/details/38f52447-3013-4c4e-be6e-9b28b635bba9 * Security Update and migrate old project files. * For projects that cannot be migrated (e.g. backups or transient copies), evaluate the risk of potential password leakage from these files and implement stricter read access controls to protect these unsafe files. * Require AVEVA Edge users to change their passwords. * Important: Edge project migration from older versions to 2023 R2 P01 is one-way due to the change in password hashing algorithms. * For information on how to reach AVEVA support for your product, please refer to this link: AVEVA Customer Support https://www.aveva.com/en/support/support-contact/ .For more information, see AVEVA's Security Bulletin AVEVA-2025-006 https://www.aveva.com/content/dam/aveva/documents/support/cyber-security-updates/SecurityBulletin_AVEVA-2025-006.pdf  or AVEVA's bulletins page https://www.aveva.com/en/support-and-success/cyber-security-updates/ .

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of AVEVA Edge 2020 SP2 Patch 0(4201.2111.1802.0000). User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the LoadImportedLibraries method. Due to the improper restriction of XML External Entity (XXE) references, a crafted document specifying a URI causes the XML parser to access the URI and embed the contents back into the XML document for further processing. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose information in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-17394.
