Code execution via IFC parser out-of-bounds write
Published Mar 28, 2023 · Updated Feb 19, 2025
Out-of-bounds write in Bentley Systems MicroStation CONNECT 10.16.2.034 allows remote attackers to execute code through a crafted IFC file. The IFC parser writes crafted data past the end of an allocated buffer while processing the file. Exploitation requires the target to open the file or visit a malicious page and runs code with the current process's privileges.
