An authenticated remote attacker with high privileges can exploit the OpenVPN configuration via the web-based management interface of a WAGO PLC. If user-defined scripts are permitted, OpenVPN may allow the execution of arbitrary shell commands enabling the attacker to run arbitrary commands on the device.
