Summary

CNCSoft-G2 contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in its file parsing logic. Exploitation requires a user to open a malicious file using the affected software. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary code execution on the engineering workstation. The vulnerability affects CNCSoft-G2 versions prior to 2.1.0.39. This vulnerability is not remotely exploitable and requires local access or user interaction.

What this means
What could happen
An attacker with access to a system running CNCSoft-G2 could run arbitrary code on that machine, potentially compromising engineering data, process configurations, or the integrity of any manufacturing control systems it manages.
Who's at risk
Manufacturing facilities using Delta Electronics CNCSoft-G2 for CNC machine programming and control system engineering. Impact is limited to the engineering workstations or servers where the software runs; the vulnerability does not directly affect production equipment unless the compromised software is used to upload malicious configurations to the devices it controls.
How it could be exploited
An attacker must have local access to the CNCSoft-G2 software (or trick a user into opening a malicious file). The vulnerability is triggered by parsing a specially crafted file, which causes an out-of-bounds write that allows code execution on the engineering workstation or server where CNCSoft-G2 is installed.
Prerequisites
  • Local access to the CNCSoft-G2 application or ability to deliver a malicious file to a user running the software
  • User action required: the user must open or import a crafted file using CNCSoft-G2
