Platform: Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation
Version: All versions before V2302.0018 and V2404.0007
Vulnerability: Out-of-bounds read vulnerability in WRL file parsing
Severity: High (CVSS v3.1 score: 7.8)
Date: November 19, 2024 (based on today’s date)
What Undercode Says:
This critical vulnerability in Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation allows remote attackers to execute malicious code on targeted systems. An attacker can trick a user into opening a specially crafted WRL file, which exploits a flaw in the software’s parsing process. This flaw enables the attacker to read beyond the allocated memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.
Here’s a breakdown of the situation:
Impact: Remote code execution
Attack Vector: User interaction required (opening a malicious WRL file)
Exploit: Out-of-bounds read during WRL file parsing
Patch: Available from Siemens (see Siemens Security Advisory)

Recommendations:
Update Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation to the latest version (V2302.0018 or V2404.0007 or later).
Be cautious about opening untrusted WRL files.
Refer to the Siemens Security Advisory for further details and mitigation strategies.
