Descriptions

Adobe After Effects versions 16.1.2 and earlier have an out-of-bounds write vulnerability. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution.

Adobe After Effects versiones anteriores a 16.1.2, presentan una vulnerabilidad de escritura fuera de límites. Una explotación con éxito podría conllevar a una ejecución de código arbitrario.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Adobe After Effects. 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 processing of MP4 files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated structure. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
