CVE-2014-0750: GE Proficy HMI/SCADA Path Traversal

Directory traversal vulnerability in gefebt.exe in the WebView CimWeb components in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy HMI/SCADA - CIMPLICITY through 8.2 SIM 24, and Proficy Process Systems with CIMPLICITY, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTTP request, aka ZDI-CAN-1622.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw affects GE Proficy HMI/SCADA CIMPLICITY WebView/CimWeb components. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could use path traversal in an HTTP request to reach files outside intended directories and potentially execute code. For industrial environments, treat exposed affected systems as high priority because compromise could affect SCADA visibility or operations. Exposure is most likely where GE CIMPLICITY WebView/CimWeb HTTP components are enabled, reachable from untrusted networks, or present in older Proficy Process Systems deployments. Internet exposure would materially increase risk. Prioritize remediation for any exposed or production SCADA deployments. The vulnerability is old but remotely reachable and unauthenticated, so unmanaged legacy systems remain the key business risk. Mitigation focus: Inventory GE CIMPLICITY and Proficy Process Systems deployments using WebView/CimWeb.; Check GE KB15939 and CISA ICSA-14-023-01 for vendor-approved updates or mitigations.; Remove direct internet exposure for affected WebView/CimWeb HTTP interfaces..
