  • SSA-949188SSA-949188: File Parsing Vulnerabilities in Simcenter Femap before V2022.1.12022-02-17csaf · siemens_psirtDE

    Siemens Simcenter Femap versions before V2022.1.1 are affected by vulnerabilities that could be triggered when the application reads files in .NEU or .BDF format. If a user is tricked to open a malicious file with the affected application, an attacker could leverage the vulnerability to leak information or potentially perform remote code execution in the context of the current process. Siemens recommends to update to the latest version line of Simcenter Femap and to avoid opening of untrusted files from unknown sources.
