Autodesk Revit 2024.x < 2024.3.3 / 2025.x < 2025.4.2 / 2026.x < 2026.1 RCE

high Nessus Plugin ID 237894

Synopsis

The remote host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Autodesk Revit installed on the remote host is prior to 2024.3.3 / 2025.4.2 / 2026.1.0 It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability. A maliciously crafted RFA file, when linked or imported into Autodesk Revit, can force a Use-After-Free vulnerability. A malicious actor can leverage this vulnerability to cause a crash, read sensitive data, or execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Autodesk Revit version 2024.3.3 / 2025.4.2 / 2026.1 or later.
