Acrobat Pro DC versiones 22.001.2011x (y anteriores), 20.005.3033x (y anteriores) y 17.012.3022x (y anteriores), están afectadas por una vulnerabilidad de uso de memoria previamente liberada que podría conllevar a una divulgación de memoria confidencial. Un atacante podría aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para omitir mitigaciones como ASLR. Una explotación de este problema requiere la interacción del usuario, ya que la víctima debe abrir un archivo malicioso

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected 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 Doc objects. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
