CVE-2024-47196

A vulnerability has been identified in ModelSim (All versions < V2024.3), Questa (All versions < V2024.3). vsimk.exe in affected applications allows a specific tcl file to be loaded from the current working directory. This could allow an authenticated local attacker to inject arbitrary code and escalate privileges in installations where administrators or processes with elevated privileges launch vsimk.exe from a user-writable directory.

Summary		(es) Se ha identificado una vulnerabilidad en ModelSim (todas las versiones < V2024.3), Questa (todas las versiones < V2024.3). vsimk.exe en las aplicaciones afectadas permite que se cargue un archivo tcl específico desde el directorio de trabajo actual. Esto podría permitir que un atacante local autenticado inyecte código arbitrario y aumente los privilegios en instalaciones donde los administradores o procesos con privilegios elevados ejecutan vsimk.exe desde un directorio en el que el usuario puede escribir.
