Descriptions

Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017.009.20058 and earlier, 2017.008.30051 and earlier, 2015.006.30306 and earlier, and 11.0.20 and earlier has an exploitable heap overflow vulnerability in the image conversion engine when processing Enhanced Metafile Format (EMF) data related to polygons. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution.

Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017.009.20058 y anteriores, 2017.008.30051 y anteriores, 2015.006.30306 y anteriores, y 11.0.20 y anteriores tiene una vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de memoria dinámica en el motor de conversión de imagen cuando procesa datos Enhanced Metafile Format (EMF) relacionados con los polígonos. La explotación con éxito de esta vulnerabilidad podría permitir la ejecución arbitraria de código.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the parsing of EMF files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length, heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
