Code execution via IFC parser out-of-bounds write
Published Mar 29, 2023 · Updated Feb 18, 2025
Out-of-bounds write in IFC parsing in Bentley Systems MicroStation 10.16.2.034 allows remote attackers to execute code via a crafted file. The IFC parser writes crafted data past the end of an allocated buffer when the application processes the file. Exploitation requires the target to open the malicious IFC file or visit a page that supplies it, and code runs in the current process.
