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 J2K files due to the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this to execute code in the context of the current process.

Recommendations: For Bentley View version 10.15.0.75, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting the parsing of J2K files until a patch is available. Avoid opening malicious files or visiting malicious pages to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
