Description
VariCAD EN up to and including version 2010-2.05 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow when parsing .dwb drawing files. The application fails to properly validate the length of input data embedded in the file, allowing a crafted .dwb file to overwrite critical memory structures. This flaw can be exploited locally by convincing a user to open a malicious file, resulting in arbitrary code execution.

An exploit or proof of concept is public: anyone can try it against an unpatched system. The public collections list a Metasploit module for it. 2 references of the record are tagged as an exploit. CISA's SSVC rates its exploitation: a proof of concept is public.
