| VULNERABILITY DETAILS |
This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to create arbitrary files on affected installations of Phoenix Contact CHARX SEC-3100 devices.

An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the service account. |
