AutomationDirect Productivity Suite: Multiple High-Risk Flaws
⚠️ AutomationDirect's Productivity Suite and several Productivity PLC models contain multiple high-severity vulnerabilities — including relative path traversal (ZipSlip), a weak password recovery mechanism, incorrect permission assignment, and binding to an unrestricted IP address. Exploitation could allow remote attackers to read, write, or delete files, execute arbitrary code, or gain full control of projects. AutomationDirect has released updates (Productivity Suite v4.5.0.x and newer) and recommends applying the latest firmware and implementing network isolation and firewall/NAC controls if immediate upgrades are not possible.
