CVE-2025-7497: CWE-787 Out-of-Bounds Write in Autodesk Shared Components
A maliciously crafted PRT file, when parsed through certain Autodesk products, can force an Out-of-Bounds Write vulnerability. A malicious actor may leverage this vulnerability to cause a crash, cause data corruption, or execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2025-7497) is an Out-of-Bounds Write (CWE-787) in Autodesk Shared Components version 1.6.2.11. It occurs when a specially crafted PRT file is parsed by certain Autodesk products, allowing a malicious actor to write outside the intended memory bounds. This can result in a crash, data corruption, or arbitrary code execution under the privileges of the current user process. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates local attack vector (AV:L), low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), user interaction required (UI:R), unchanged scope (S:U), and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H).
Potential Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability can cause denial of service through application crashes, corruption of data handled by the affected software, or execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user. This could lead to compromise of the affected system or further escalation depending on the environment and user privileges.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, users should exercise caution when opening PRT files from untrusted sources and limit exposure to potentially malicious files. Monitor Autodesk's official channels for updates and patches addressing this vulnerability.
