Code execution via out-of-bounds JP2 write
Published Aug 14, 2024 · Updated Aug 14, 2024
Out-of-bounds write in Adobe Bridge 13.0.8 and earlier and 14.1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute code via a malicious JP2 file. The JP2 parser does not properly validate user-supplied data before writing it, allowing a write past the end of an allocated object. Exploitation requires a victim to open the file or visit a malicious page, and resulting code runs in the current process and user context.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=0 <=13.0.8
- Affected versionversion=0 <=14.1.1
