Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Tecnomatix Plant Simulation versions prior to V2201.0006

Description The issue is related to an out of bounds read past the end of an allocated structure while parsing specially crafted SPP files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. The vulnerability is associated with a buffer read beyond the memory boundaries, which can be exploited by using a specially crafted SPP file to execute arbitrary code.

Recommendations For versions prior to V2201.0006, update to version V2201.0006 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of SPP files from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the vulnerable SPP file parsing functionality until the issue is resolved.
