Multiple buffer overflows in Autodesk Design Review (ADR) before 2013 Hotfix 2 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted RLE data in a (1) BMP or (2) FLI file, (3) encoded scan lines in a PCX file, or (4) DataSubBlock or (5) GlobalColorTable in a GIF file.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2015-8572 is a set of file-parsing memory corruption flaws in Autodesk Design Review before 2013 Hotfix 2. A crafted BMP, FLI, PCX, or GIF file could cause arbitrary code execution when processed. Business risk is highest where legacy ADR remains installed and users handle files from external parties. Exposure is likely limited to environments still running Autodesk Design Review versions before 2013 Hotfix 2. Systems are most relevant when users can open externally supplied BMP, FLI, PCX, or GIF content in ADR or workflows that invoke ADR file parsing. Treat as a legacy workstation RCE risk. Prioritize if ADR is still present in design, engineering, facilities, or vendor-file workflows. If the product is absent, urgency is low; if present and unpatched, remediation should be scheduled promptly. Mitigation focus: Apply Autodesk Design Review 2013 Hotfix 2 where ADR is still required.; Remove or replace unsupported legacy ADR installations where feasible.; Limit ADR use with untrusted BMP, FLI, PCX, and GIF files..
