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

Description A vulnerability has been identified in the affected application, where an out of bounds write past the end of an allocated buffer occurs while parsing a specially crafted SPP file. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process. The issue is related to a buffer overflow in memory, which can be exploited by using a specially created SPP file, potentially allowing an attacker 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 affected SPP file parsing functionality until the issue is resolved.
