An unquoted search path or element in RSLinx Classic Versions 3.90.01 and prior and FactoryTalk Linx Gateway Versions 3.90.00 and prior may allow an authorized, but non-privileged local user to execute arbitrary code and allow a threat actor to escalate user privileges on the affected workstation.
The product uses a search path that contains an unquoted element, in which the element contains whitespace or other separators. This can cause the product to access resources in a parent path.
