October 10, 2024 CISA ICS Advisory

Summary

Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation contains multiple file parsing vulnerabilities that could be triggered when the application reads files in WRL format. If a user is tricked to open a malicious file with any of the affected products, this could lead the application to crash or potentially lead to arbitrary code execution. Siemens has released new versions for the affected products and recommends to update to the latest versions. CVE-2024-45463: The affected applications contain an out of bounds read past the end of an allocated structure while parsing specially crafted WRL files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. CVE-2024-45464: The affected applications contain an out of bounds read past the end of an allocated structure while parsing specially crafted WRL files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. CVE-2024-45465: The affected applications contain an out of bounds read past the end of an allocated structure while parsing specially crafted WRL files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. CVE-2024-45466: The affected applications contain an out of bounds read past the end of an allocated structure while parsing specially crafted WRL files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process.
