Advantech WebAccess cnvlgxtag Untrusted Pointer Dereference Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Advantech WebAccess. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of the command line in the cnvlgxtag utility. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied value prior to dereferencing it as a pointer.
