Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability has been identified in Simcenter Femap V2406 (All versions < V2406.0003), Simcenter Femap V2412 (All versions < V2412.0002). The affected applications contain an out of bounds write vulnerability when parsing a specially crafted STP file. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process.(ZDI-CAN-26692)
AnalysisAI
A vulnerability has been identified in Simcenter Femap V2406 (All versions < V2406.0003), Simcenter Femap V2412 (All versions < V2412.0002). Rated high severity (CVSS 7.3), this vulnerability is no authentication required. No vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787), which allows attackers to write data beyond allocated buffer boundaries leading to code execution or crashes. A vulnerability has been identified in Simcenter Femap V2406 (All versions < V2406.0003), Simcenter Femap V2412 (All versions < V2412.0002). The affected applications contain an out of bounds write vulnerability when parsing a specially crafted STP file. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process.(ZDI-CAN-26692) Affected products include: Siemens Simcenter Femap.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Validate write boundaries, use memory-safe languages, enable compiler protections (ASLR, stack canaries).
