Las versiones de Adobe Acrobat Reader 15.020.20042 y anteriores, 15.006.30244 y anteriores, 11.0.18 y anteriores tienen una vulnerabilidad de corrupción de memoria explotable en el motor XFA relacionado con la estructura y organización de un formulario. Una explotación satisfactoria podría conducir a la ejecución de código arbitrario.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Adobe Reader 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 XFA's template objects. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data which can result in a read past the endof an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
