CVE-2024-1848
CVE-2024-1848 is a high-risk vulnerability affecting SOLIDWORKS Desktop, potentially allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code. This stems from multiple issues including heap-based buffer overflows, memory corruption, and use-after-free vulnerabilities within the file reading process. Successfully exploiting CVE-2024-1848 allows an attacker to run malicious code by simply opening a specially crafted file (CATPART, DWG, DXF, IPT, JT, SAT, SLDDRW, SLDPRT, STL, STP, X_B or X_T). Given the existence of multiple vulnerabilities, exploitation could be easily chained for maximum impact. While the CVSS score is 0, the SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) of 30 indicates a moderate level of risk, suggesting that while not critical, the vulnerability should still be addressed to prevent potential exploitation. This is because of its presence "In The Wild." Addressing this vulnerability is crucial to prevent unauthorized code execution and maintain the integrity of SOLIDWORKS environments. A successful exploit can lead to system compromise and data breaches.
