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 Solid Edge SE2024 (All versions < V224.0 Update 9). The affected applications contain an out of bounds read past the end of an allocated structure while parsing specially crafted PAR 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

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in Solid Edge SE2024 when parsing specially crafted PAR (part) files. The vulnerability occurs when the parser reads past the end of an allocated memory structure, which can be exploited to achieve arbitrary code execution in the context of the current process.

MitigationUpdate Solid Edge SE2024 to version V224.0 Update 9 or later to remediate this vulnerability.

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 if Solid Edge SE2024 is installed
    Look for Solid Edge SE2024 in the installed programs list (Windows Control Panel > Programs and Features) or check the installation directory where Siemens software is typically installed
    Affected if Solid Edge SE2024 is present on the system
  2. Determine the installed version of Solid Edge SE2024
    Open Solid Edge SE2024 and navigate to Help > About Solid Edge, or check the version information in the program's executable properties. The version typically appears as a number like 224.x.x.x
    Affected if The version number is less than 224.00.09.04 (for example, 224.00.00.00 through 224.00.09.03)
  3. Verify PAR file handling capability exists
    Confirm that PAR (part file) functionality is available in the installation. PAR file support is typically a built-in feature of Solid Edge for opening part files created in the application
    Affected if PAR file parsing capability is present (which is the default state for a standard Solid Edge installation)

A system is affected if Solid Edge SE2024 is installed with a version number below 224.00.09.04 and the PAR file parsing feature is available (which is the default configuration).
