CVE-2022-47967
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 · uneditedA vulnerability has been identified in Solid Edge (All versions < V2023 MP1). The DOCMGMT.DLL contains a memory corruption vulnerability that could be triggered while parsing files in different file formats such as PAR, ASM, DFT. 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 · moderate confidenceMemory corruption vulnerability in Solid Edge's DOCMGMT.DLL library allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by parsing specially crafted PAR, ASM, or DFT files. The vulnerability exists in the file parsing logic and affects all versions prior to V2023 MP1.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Solid Edge installationCheck for the presence of the Solid Edge installation directory, typically found at C:\Program Files\Siemens\Solid Edge<version> or C:\Program Files (x86)\Siemens\Solid Edge<version>. Use File Explorer or PowerShell: Get-ChildItem 'C:\Program Files*\Siemens\' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Where-Object { $_.Name -like 'Solid*' }Affected if Solid Edge is not installed on the system
-
Identify installed Solid Edge versionLocate the main Solid Edge executable (usually solid edge.exe or se.exe) in the installation folder and check its file version. In Windows, right-click the executable, select Properties, and view the Details tab. Alternatively, use PowerShell: Get-Item 'C:\Program Files\Siemens\Solid Edge*\Program\solid edge.exe' | Select-Object Name, VersionInfoAffected if The version cannot be determined or is earlier than V2023 MP1
-
Verify DOCMGMT.DLL presenceConfirm that the vulnerable DOCMGMT.DLL library exists in the Solid Edge installation directory. Search for the file: Get-ChildItem 'C:\Program Files*\Siemens\Solid Edge*\' -Recurse -Filter 'DOCMGMT.DLL' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinueAffected if DOCMGMT.DLL is not found in the expected Solid Edge directory
-
Compare version to affected rangeReview the identified Solid Edge version against the affected versions: versions prior to V2023 MP1 (including se2023). The vulnerability affects all versions < se2023 or = se2023. If the installed version is se2022, se2021, or older, the environment is vulnerable. If the version is se2023 (without MP1), it is also vulnerable.Affected if Installed version is se2023 (without MP1) or any earlier version such as se2022, se2021, se2020, or prior
A system is affected if Solid Edge is installed with a version prior to V2023 MP1 (including se2023), and the DOCMGMT.DLL library exists for parsing PAR, ASM, or DFT files.
