Sensitive-memory disclosure via out-of-bounds read
Published Sep 7, 2023 · Updated Feb 27, 2025
Out-of-bounds read in Adobe Premiere Pro 22.0 and earlier and 15.4.2 and earlier allows attackers to disclose memory via a malicious file. Adobe has not published the affected parser or the malformed file field that makes it read beyond its allocated buffer. A victim must open the file; the resulting disclosure can reveal address data that helps bypass ASLR, with no integrity or availability impact reported.
