CVE-2020-6785 | Uncontrolled Search Path Element in Bosch BVMS and BVMS Viewer

Loading a DLL through an Uncontrolled Search Path Element in Bosch BVMS and BVMS Viewer in versions 10.1.0, 10.0.1, 10.0.0 and 9.0.0 and older potentially allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on a victim's system. This affects both the installer as well as the installed application. This also affects Bosch DIVAR IP 7000 R2, Bosch DIVAR IP all-in-one 5000 and Bosch DIVAR IP all-in-one 7000 with installers and installed BVMS versions prior to BVMS 10.1.1.

CVSS metrics for this CVE.

Base score Version Severity Vector Exploitability Impact Score source
7.8 3.1 HIGH
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:L)
They already need access on the box, or another person has to do something wrong; it’s not a remote drive-by.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
User interaction (UI:R)
A real person has to do something—click, install, enable—otherwise it doesn’t land.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:H)
Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:H)
Could take the service down hard or make it unusable for people who depend on it.
