SSA-050438: Multiple File Parsing Vulnerabilities in Teamcenter Visualization and Tecnomatix Plant Simulation

Publication Date:	2025-03-11
Last Update:	2025-03-11
Current Version:	V1.0
CVSS v3.1 Base Score:	7.8
CVSS v4.0 Base Score:	7.3

SUMMARY

Siemens Teamcenter Visualization and Tecnomatrix Plant Simulation contains multiple file parsing vulnerabilities that could be triggered when the application reads files in WRL format. If a user is tricked to open a malicious file with any of the affected products, this could lead the application to crash or potentially lead to arbitrary code execution.

Siemens has released new versions for the affected products and recommends to update to the latest versions.
