Workarounds

The following mitigations and workarounds have been identified by ARC Informatique to help reduce risk:

Change default configuration if using components prior to v12.0. If taking advantage of the web and mobile back features with a product version up to v11.2, change the following configuration item manually to prevent remote code execution In the file <PcVue installation directory>\Bin\PropertyServer.config>, change the following element and set it to “Low” (defaults to “Full”): <serverProviders> <formatter ref=”binary” typeFilterLevel=”Low” /> </serverProviders>
