Descriptions
An issue was discovered in Adobe Acrobat Reader 2018.009.20050 and earlier versions, 2017.011.30070 and earlier versions, 2015.006.30394 and earlier versions. This vulnerability is an instance of a heap overflow vulnerability in the image conversion engine, when handling JPEG data embedded within an XPS file. A successful attack can lead to code corruption, control-flow hijack, or an information leak attack.
Se ha descubierto un problema en Adobe Acrobat Reader 2018.009.20050 y anteriores, 2017.011.30070 y anteriores y 2015.006.30394 y anteriores. La vulnerabilidad es un ejemplo de vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de memoria dinámica (heap) en el motor de conversión de imagen al gestionar datos JPEG embebidos en un archivo XPS. Un ataque con éxito puede conducir a la corrupción del código, el secuestro del flujo de control o a un ataque de filtrado de información.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information 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 JPEG images embedded inside XPS files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute code in the context of the current process.
