An issue was discovered in Open Design Alliance Drawings SDK before 2024.1. A crafted DWG file can force the SDK to reuse an object that has been freed. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code.

Weakness

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
