Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability exists that could result in remote code execution when an authenticated user executes a saved project file that has been tampered by a malicious actor.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A CWE-22 Path Traversal vulnerability in the project's saved file handling allows authenticated users to craft malicious project files that escape restricted directories, potentially leading to remote code execution on the affected system.

MitigationImplement strict path validation and canonicalization to ensure project files cannot escape intended directories; add file integrity verification (e.g., cryptographic signatures) to detect tampered project files before execution.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify if Schneider Electric Foxrtu Station is installed
    Check installed programs or use system inventory tools to locate Foxrtu Station installation directories (commonly in Program Files or vendor-specific paths)
    Affected if Foxrtu Station is present on the system
  2. Determine the installed Foxrtu Station version
    Check the program's About dialog, version information in executable properties, or look for version files in the installation directory; compare against the affected range (all versions below 9.3.0)
    Affected if Installed version is lower than 9.3.0
  3. Identify if project file functionality is in use
    Look for project file directories or recent .rtu, .prj, or similar project file extensions in the Foxrtu data directories; check for saved project configurations
    Affected if Project files or saved configurations exist on the system
  4. Check for unauthorized file access attempts
    Review application and system logs for path traversal indicators such as directory traversal patterns (../), unexpected file paths outside intended directories, or access to system directories from the Foxrtu process
    Affected if Logs show path traversal patterns or unauthorized directory access
  5. Verify user authentication configurations
    Review Foxrtu user account settings and authentication logs to identify which users have access to the project file import/load functionality
    Affected if Multiple authenticated users exist with project file access privileges

The environment is affected if Schneider Electric Foxrtu Station is installed with a version lower than 9.3.0 and project file handling functionality is accessible to authenticated users.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 9.3.0 or later
Fixed in 9.3.0
Interim mitigation

Implement strict path validation and canonicalization to ensure project files cannot escape intended directories; add file integrity verification (e.g., cryptographic signatures) to detect tampered project files before execution.

Recommended fix High confidence

Foxrtu Station version 9.3.0 or later

  1. 1. Check current Foxrtu Station version by opening the application and navigating to Help > About or checking the installation directory for version information
  2. 2. Backup all existing project files, configurations, and any custom settings to a secure location
  3. 3. Navigate to the Schneider Electric download portal at download.schneider-electric.com
  4. 4. Search for Foxrtu Station version 9.3.0 or later
  5. 5. Download the installer for Foxrtu Station version 9.3.0 or newer
  6. 6. Run the installer and follow the on-screen prompts to upgrade the software
  7. 7. After installation, verify the new version by checking Help > About in the application
  8. 8. Restore project files from the backup and validate they load correctly
