CWE-22Published: October 25, 2013· Updated: Jun 16, 2026
Official Description
The SUPERGRIDLib.SuperGrid ActiveX control in SuperGrid.ocx before 65.30.30000.10002 in WellinTech KingView before 6.53 does not properly restrict ReplaceDBFile method calls, which allows remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary files, and subsequently execute arbitrary programs, via the two pathname arguments, as demonstrated by a directory traversal attack.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2013-6127 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2013-6127. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
