Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A vulnerability has been identified in JT Open (All versions < V11.2.3.0), JT Utilities (All versions < V13.2.3.0), Parasolid V34.0 (All versions < V34.0.252), Parasolid V34.1 (All versions < V34.1.242), Parasolid V35.0 (All versions < V35.0.170), Parasolid V35.1 (All versions < V35.1.150). The affected application contains a stack overflow vulnerability while parsing specially crafted JT files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

A stack overflow vulnerability exists in multiple versions of JT Open, JT Utilities, and Parasolid when parsing specially crafted JT files. The overflow occurs during JT file parsing and can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.

MitigationUpdate affected software to the patched versions: JT Open to V11.2.3.0 or later, JT Utilities to V13.2.3.0 or later, and Parasolid to V34.0.252, V34.1.242, V35.0.170, or V35.1.150 respectively. Implement input validation and restrict processing of untrusted JT files until patches are applied.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed Siemens JT-related software
    Check system for installed JT Open Toolkit, JT Utilities, or Parasolid by reviewing installed programs in Control Panel or using 'wmic product get name' command
    Affected if One or more of these products are installed
  2. Determine JT Open Toolkit version
    Navigate to the JT Open Toolkit installation directory (typically C:\Program Files\Siemens\JT Open Toolkit or similar) and locate version information in the file properties or a version.txt file
    Affected if Installed version is found to be less than 11.2.3.0
  3. Determine JT Utilities version
    Navigate to the JT Utilities installation directory and locate version information in the file properties, README, or version manifest
    Affected if Installed version is found to be less than 11.2.3.0
  4. Determine Parasolid version
    Locate the Parasolid installation directory (commonly in CAD application folders under Program Files) and check version information in the component DLL or version file
    Affected if Installed version falls within any of these ranges: 34.0.x where x < 252, 34.1.x where x < 242, 35.0.x where x < 170, or 35.1.x where x < 150
  5. Confirm JT file parsing is in use
    Check if the software is configured to process JT files - look for recent JT file operations, check associated file associations, or review application logs if available
    Affected if The vulnerable product is actively processing JT files

You are affected if any of these products are installed with a version below the patched thresholds AND the software is used to parse JT files.
