Las versiones 22.001.20085 (y anteriores), 20.005.3031x (y anteriores) y 17.012.30205 (y anteriores) de Acrobat Reader DC se ven afectadas por una vulnerabilidad de lectura fuera de los límites al analizar un archivo manipulado, lo que podría provocar una lectura más allá del final de una estructura de memoria asignada. Un atacante podría aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para eludir mitigaciones como ASLR. La 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 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 handling of Annotation objects. By performing actions in JavaScript, an attacker can trigger a read past the end of an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
