:
Platform: Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation
Version: Not specified
Vulnerability: Remote Code Execution (RCE) through WRL file parsing
Severity: High
Disclosure Date: Not specified (CVE published in 2024)
Vulnerability Details:
The vulnerability lies in the software’s handling of WRL files. An attacker can create a malicious WRL file that exploits a flaw in how the software validates objects before performing operations on them. This allows the attacker to execute code on the victim’s computer with the same privileges as the running process.
