Summary

Advantech ADAM-3600 versions prior to 2.8.5.0 are affected. The firmware upgrade functionality fails to verify firmware authenticity (CWE-345), so it accepts forged upgrade files. An authenticated remote attacker with high privileges can upload a forged firmware upgrade file, which can compromise the device permanently.
