Application crash via CGM parser stack exhaustion
Published Dec 13, 2022 · Updated Apr 21, 2025
Stack exhaustion in Siemens JT2Go before 14.1.0.6 and Teamcenter Visualization releases allows attackers to crash the application via a CGM file. CGM_NIST_Loader.dll exhausts the process stack while parsing attacker-controlled CGM content; Siemens has not disclosed the recursive path or missing depth limit. Exploitation requires a user to open the crafted file, and the reported consequence is application termination without code execution or data access.
