CVE-2019-13510: Rockwell Automation Arena Simulation DOE File Parsing Use-After-Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
Rockwell Automation Arena Simulation Software versions 16.00.00 and earlier contain a USE AFTER FREE CWE-416. A maliciously crafted Arena file opened by an unsuspecting user may result in the application crashing or the execution of arbitrary code.
Other sources
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Rockwell Automation Arena Simulation. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of DOE files. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
