A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy Hmi and scada Cimplicity up to 8.1 (SCADA Software). Affected is an unknown code block of the file CimWebServer.exe. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22.
