Hot Take:

So, Siemens has decided to give their Simcenter Femap a little vulnerability makeover, but guess what? CISA won’t be updating their security advisories for these products anymore. Looks like Siemens is taking the wheel on this one, folks! Instead of CISA’s regular updates, we’re now relying on Siemens’ ProductCERT Security Advisories. I guess it’s like switching from a reliable old weather app to your quirky neighbor’s homemade weather station. Let’s hope Siemens keeps the forecasts accurate! With vulnerabilities like out-of-bounds write and read lurking in the shadows, it’s time to update your software faster than you can say ‘malware attack’!

Key Points:

– Siemens Simcenter Femap has vulnerabilities with a CVSS score of 7.8.
– The vulnerabilities allow attackers to execute code within the current process.
– CISA stops updating advisories for Siemens products as of January 10, 2023.
– Siemens recommends updating affected products and avoiding opening untrusted files.
