Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Bentley View version 10.15.0.75

Description: This issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations. User interaction is required, where the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The flaw exists within the parsing of DGN files, specifically when crafted data in a DGN file can trigger a write past the end of an allocated buffer. This can be leveraged to execute code in the context of the current process.

Recommendations: For Bentley View version 10.15.0.75, consider avoiding the use of DGN files from untrusted sources until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the parsing of DGN files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
