Siemens WinCC before 7.2, as used in SIMATIC PCS7 before 8.0 SP1 and other products, does not properly assign privileges for the database containing WebNavigator credentials, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information via a SQL query.
Weaknesses in this category are related to the management of permissions, privileges, and other security features that are used to perform access control.
