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 JavaScript engine. The vulnerability is triggered by a PDF file with crafted JavaScript code that manipulates the optional content group (OCG). A successful attack can lead to code corruption, control-flow hijack, or a code re-use 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. Esta vulnerabilidad es un ejemplo de una vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de memoria dinámica (heap) en el motor JavaScript. La vulnerabilidad se desencadena mediante un archivo PDF con código JavaScript manipulado que manipula el OCG (optional content group). Un ataque con éxito puede conducir a la corrupción del código, el secuestro del flujo de control o a un ataque de reutilización 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 handling of the OCG setIntent method. 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.
