Description
PLCnext Engineer checks GSDX manifest reference digests but does not cryptographically verify the XML `SignatureValue` over canonicalized `SignedInfo`. An unauthenticated local attacker can modify signed GSDML content, update its manifest digest, retain the public certificate data, and leave an invalid nonempty `SignatureValue`. PLCnext Engineer prior to 2026.6 reports the package as `Valid` and selects the modified device description for import under the default policy.
