CVE-2025-10881: CWE-122 Heap-Based Buffer Overflow in Autodesk Shared Components
A maliciously crafted CATPRODUCT file, when parsed through certain Autodesk products, can force a Heap-Based Overflow vulnerability. A malicious actor can leverage this vulnerability to cause a crash, read sensitive data, or execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2025-10881) involves a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) in Autodesk Shared Components version 1.8.0.7. It is triggered by processing a specially crafted CATPRODUCT file. Successful exploitation can cause denial of service, data disclosure, or arbitrary code execution under the privileges of the user running the affected software. The attack vector is local with low complexity and no privileges required but does require user interaction. The vulnerability is publicly disclosed but no patch or mitigation details have been provided by Autodesk as of the publication date.
Potential Impact
An attacker who can convince a user to open a malicious CATPRODUCT file can cause the Autodesk application to crash, potentially read sensitive information from memory, or execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. This can lead to compromise of the affected system or data leakage. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected software environment.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should exercise caution when opening CATPRODUCT files from untrusted sources. No vendor-provided mitigations or workarounds are currently documented.
