Descriptions

A vulnerability has been identified in Tecnomatix Plant Simulation V2201 (All versions < V2201.0008), Tecnomatix Plant Simulation V2302 (All versions < V2302.0002). The affected application contains an out of bounds write past the end of an allocated buffer while parsing a specially crafted SPP file. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. (ZDI-CAN-21132)

Se ha identificado una vulnerabilidad en Tecnomatix Plant Simulation V2201 (Todas las versiones inferiores a V2201.0008), Tecnomatix Plant Simulation V2302 (Todas las versiones inferiores a V2302.0002). La aplicación afectada contiene una escritura fuera de límites más allá del final de un búfer asignado mientras analiza un archivo SPP especialmente diseñado. Esto podría permitir a un atacante ejecutar código en el contexto del proceso actual. (ZDI-CAN-21132)

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of SPP files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write before the start of an allocated data structure. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
