Solid Edge SE2024: Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound)

CVE-2024-54095 is a high-severity integer underflow (wrap or wraparound) vulnerability in Solid Edge SE2024 from Siemens, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 out of 10. It can be exploited with local access to the system by an unauthenticated attacker, but only if a user takes part, for example by opening a link or file. The record lists version V224.0 Update 10 as the first without the flaw, so updating Solid Edge SE2024 to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.17% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Official description

A vulnerability has been identified in Solid Edge SE2024 (All versions < V224.0 Update 10). The affected application is vulnerable to integer underflow vulnerability which can be triggered while parsing specially crafted PAR files. This could allow an attacker to execute code in the context of the current process.

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound)

The product subtracts one value from another, such that the result is less than the minimum allowable integer value, which produces a value that is not equal to the correct result.
