Las versiones de Adobe Acrobat and Reader, 2019.012.20040 y anteriores, 2017.011.30148 y anteriores, 2017.011.30148 y anteriores, 2015.006.30503 y anteriores, y 2015.006.30503 y anteriores, presentan una vulnerabilidad de lectura fuera de límites. Su explotación con éxito podría conllevar a una divulgación de información.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Adobe Acrobat 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 the parsing of indices in AcroForm.api. 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 buffer. An attacker can leverage this to execute code in the context of the current process.
