CVE-2024-32639
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 Tecnomatix Plant Simulation V2302 (All versions < V2302.0011). The affected application contains an out of bounds write past the end of an allocated buffer while parsing a specially crafted MODEL file. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. (ZDI-CAN-22974)
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 confidenceAn out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in Tecnomatix Plant Simulation V2302 and earlier versions when parsing specially crafted MODEL files. The vulnerability occurs during file parsing when the application writes past the end of an allocated memory buffer, potentially allowing arbitrary code execution in the current process context.

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.
-
Verify Tecnomatix Plant Simulation installationLocate the installation directory or check the installed programs list on the system for Siemens Tecnomatix Plant SimulationAffected if The software is present on the system
-
Determine installed versionCheck the version of Tecnomatix Plant Simulation by right-clicking the executable, viewing its properties, or using the application's About/Help menuAffected if The version cannot be determined or is V2302 or earlier
-
Compare version against affected rangeCompare your installed version to V2302 (the last affected version) - versions V2302 and any earlier version are affectedAffected if The installed version is V2302 or any version prior to V2302
-
Confirm fix statusCheck if the version is V2302.0011 or later - versions prior to V2302.0011 remain vulnerableAffected if The installed version is earlier than V2302.0011
You are affected if Tecnomatix Plant Simulation V2302 or earlier is installed, particularly versions prior to V2302.0011, and you open specially crafted MODEL files.
