Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Siemens JT2Go and Teamcenter Visualization (unknown version). Affected by this issue is an unknown code block in the library APDFL.dll of the component PDF File Parser. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a heap-based overflow vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-122. A heap overflow condition is a buffer overflow, where the buffer that can be overwritten is allocated in the heap portion of memory, generally meaning that the buffer was allocated using a routine such as malloc(). Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

The APDFL.dll in Siemens JT2Go prior to V13.3.0.5 and Siemens Teamcenter Visualization prior to V14.0.0.2 contains an out of bounds write past the fixed-length heap-based buffer while parsing specially crafted PDF files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process.

The weakness was released 10/20/2022 as ssa-829738. The advisory is shared for download at cert-portal.siemens.com. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2022-2069 since 06/13/2022.
