Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Simcenter Femap versions prior to V2406

Description: A vulnerability has been identified that allows an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process by exploiting an out of bounds read past the end of an allocated structure while parsing specially crafted IGS files. The issue is related to a buffer read beyond its limits in memory, which can be triggered by specially crafted IGS files, potentially enabling an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Recommendations: For versions prior to V2406, update to version V2406 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of specially crafted IGS files that could trigger the out of bounds read. Restrict access to the IGS file parsing functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is applied.
