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 Autodesk Design Review, Advance Steel, Civil 3D® and AutoCAD products may be affected by Double Free, Heap Overflow, Out-of-bound Read/Write, Use-After-Free, and Type Confusion vulnerabilities. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities may lead to remote code execution.
The details of the vulnerabilities are as follows:
CVE-2021-27033 - A Double Free vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on PDF files within affected installations of Autodesk Design Review 2018, 2017, 2013, 2012, 2011. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.

This vulnerability in conjunction with other vulnerabilities could lead to code execution in the context of the current process.
CVE-2022-27525 - A malicious crafted .dwf or .pct file when consumed through DesignReview.exe application could lead to memory corruption vulnerability by write access violation. This vulnerability in conjunction with other vulnerabilities could lead to code execution in the context of the current process.
CVE-2022-27526 - A malicious crafted TGA file when consumed through DesignReview.exe application could lead to memory corruption vulnerability. This vulnerability in conjunction with other vulnerabilities could lead to code execution in the context of the current process.
CVE-2022-27529 - A maliciously crafted PICT, BMP, PSD or TIF file in Autodesk AutoCAD 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 may be used to write beyond the allocated buffer while parsing PICT, BMP, PSD or TIF file. This vulnerability may be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2022-27530 - A maliciously crafted TIF or PICT file in Autodesk AutoCAD 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 can be used to write beyond the allocated buffer through Buffer overflow vulnerability. This vulnerability can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2022-27869 - A maliciously crafted TIFF file in Autodesk AutoCAD 2023 can be forced to read and write beyond allocated boundaries when parsing the TIFF file. This vulnerability can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2022-27870 - A maliciously crafted TGA file in Autodesk AutoCAD 2023 may be used to write beyond the allocated buffer while parsing TGA file. This vulnerability may be exploited to execute arbitrary code..
