Descriptions
Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 23.001.20093 (and earlier) and 20.005.30441 (and earlier) are affected by an Improper Access Control vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to bypass API restrictions 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 AnnotsString object. The issue results from the lack of control over modifications to attributes of object prototypes. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
