Last Revised: 3/28/2022
| Severity | CVSS Score | Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Low | 0.1 - 3.9 | A vulnerability where scope and impact of exploitation is restricted and the ability to exploit is extremely difficult. |
| Medium | 4.0 - 6.9 | A vulnerability where exploitation is mitigated by factors such as difficulty to exploit, default configuration or ease of identification. |
| High | 7.0 - 8.9 | A vulnerability, which if exploited, would directly impact the confidentiality, integrity or availability of user's data or processing resources. |
| Critical | 9.0 - 10 | A vulnerability, which if exploited, would allow remote execution of malicious code without user action. |
Applications and Services that utilize certain Autodesk products are affected by Out-of-bounds Read, Out-of-bounds Write, untrusted pointer Dereference, and memory corruption vulnerabilities. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities may lead to arbitrary code execution.
The details of the vulnerabilities are as follows:
CVE-2022-27523 - A buffer over-read can be exploited in Autodesk TrueView 2022 may lead to an exposure of sensitive information or a crash through using a maliciously crafted DWG file as an Input. This vulnerability in conjunction with other vulnerabilities could lead to code execution in the context of the current process.
CVE-2022-27524 - An out-of-bounds read can be exploited in Autodesk TrueView 2022 may lead to an exposure of sensitive information or a crash through using a maliciously crafted DWG file as an Input. This vulnerability in conjunction with other vulnerabilities could lead to code execution in the context of the current process.
CVE-2021-27041-A maliciously crafted DWG file can be used to write beyond the allocated buffer while parsing DWG files. This vulnerability can be exploited to execute arbitrary code
CVE-2021-27042- A maliciously crafted DWG file can be used to write beyond the allocated buffer while parsing DWG files. The vulnerability exists because the application fails to handle a crafted DWG file, which causes an unhandled exception. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2021-27043 - An Arbitrary Address Write issue in the Autodesk DWG application can allow a malicious user to leverage the application to write in unexpected paths. In order to exploit this the attacker would need the victim to enable full page heap in the application.
CVE-2022-25797 -A Memory Corruption Vulnerability in Autodesk TrueView 2022 and 2021 may lead to remote code execution through maliciously crafted DWG files.
CVE-2022-25795 - A maliciously crafted PDF file in Autodesk AutoCAD 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 can be used to dereference for a write beyond the allocated buffer while parsing PDF files. The vulnerability exists because the application fails to handle a crafted PDF file, which causes an unhandled exception.
