Additionally, the Web Server does not sufficiently restrict cross-origin requests, which could allow a remote attacker to trigger file access from a victim's browser by directing the victim to a malicious website.
The vulnerability is only exploitable when the LabOne Web Server is running. Installations using only the LabOne APIs without starting the Web Server are not exposed.

Solution
Update to LabOne 26.01.3.9 or later. The update can be applied directly through the LabOne software, or downloaded from the Zurich Instruments Download Center at https://www.zhinst.com/support/download-center.
Workaround
Upgrading to LabOne 26.01.3.9 or later is the only complete remediation. For customers who cannot upgrade immediately, the following workarounds reduce the risk and should be applied together: Against a same-network attacker (an actor on the same network connecting directly to the LabOne Web Server): - Configure a local firewall to limit access to the LabOne Web Server (default port 8006) to localhost only, preventing access from other hosts on the network. - Operate systems running LabOne only within a dedicated, trusted laboratory network that is not connected to the general corporate network or the internet. Against a malicious-website attacker (a user visits an untrusted website while the LabOne Web Server is running, and the website triggers the vulnerable behaviour through the user's browser): - Do not browse untrusted or unknown websites on systems where the LabOne Web Server is active. Where practical, dedicate the LabOne host to instrument control only and avoid general-purpose web browsing on it. Additional risk reduction: For systems that cannot be upgraded, avoiding the storage of credentials, personal data, or sensitive research data on the LabOne host reduces the impact of a successful exploit.

| Description | The LabOne Web Server, backing the LabOne User Interface, contains insufficient input validation in its file access functionality. An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read arbitrary files on the host system that are accessible to the operating system user running the LabOne software. Additionally, the Web Server does not sufficiently restrict cross-origin requests, which could allow a remote attacker to trigger file access from a victim's browser by directing the victim to a malicious website. The vulnerability is only exploitable when the LabOne Web Server is running. Installations using only the LabOne APIs without starting the Web Server are not exposed. | |
