Descriptions

Adobe FrameMaker version 2019.0.6 (and earlier versions) has an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could be exploited to read past the end of an allocated buffer, possibly resulting in a crash or disclosure of sensitive information from other memory locations. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious FrameMaker file.

Adobe FrameMaker versión 2019.0.6 (y versiones anteriores), presenta una vulnerabilidad de lectura fuera de límites que podría ser explotada para leer más allá del final de un búfer asignado, resultando posiblemente en un bloqueo o una divulgación de información confidencial de otras ubicaciones de la memoria. Es requerida una interacción del usuario para explotar esta vulnerabilidad, ya que el objetivo debe visitar una página maliciosa o abrir un archivo FrameMaker malicioso

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Adobe FrameMaker. 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 FM files. Crafted data in a FM file can trigger a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
