AI Analysis

Impact

An integer overflow flaw exists in OpenModSim versions 1.11.0 and earlier. The overflow is triggered when the software performs arithmetic on integers that exceed the bounds of the data type, causing the program to crash. The impact is a loss of service continuity for users running the simulation. No exploitation results in code execution or data theft are documented in the available information.

Affected Systems

The affected product is OpenModSim, specifically versions 1.11.0 or below. No vendor name is provided, indicating the product may be maintained in a publicly hosted repository or as an open‑source library.

Risk and Exploitability

No EPSS score is provided and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, implying no confirmed exploitation incidents are known. The CVSS score is not available, so the severity cannot be quantified precisely. Based on the description, the attack vector is inferred to be related to control of the input data that causes the overflow, but the exact vector is not stated. The risk level can be considered moderate, as a denial of service could interrupt critical simulation processes while the vulnerability remains unexploited publicly.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest OpenModSim release (>=1.11.1) which removes the integer overflow flaw.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, configure the application to reject or sanitize input values that could trigger large integer operations, reducing the chances of overflow.
  • Monitor application logs for abnormal termination events and set alerts to detect potential exploitation attempts.
