CVE-2020-10894

Information disclosure via U3D out-of-bounds read

Published Apr 22, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Out-of-bounds read in Foxit PDF Editor 9.7.1.29511 allows remote attackers to disclose process memory through a crafted PDF. The U3DBrowser parser fails to validate user-supplied U3D object data before reading beyond the end of an allocated object. Exploitation requires the target to visit a malicious page or open a malicious file; the standalone flaw discloses information, while code execution requires a vulnerability chain.
