Memory disclosure via out-of-bounds file read
Published Sep 13, 2024 · Updated Dec 12, 2024
Out-of-bounds read in Adobe Media Encoder through 23.6.8 and 24.0 through 24.5 allows attackers to disclose memory via a malicious file. Adobe has not disclosed the affected parser, file format, or precise operation that reads outside the allocated memory boundary. A victim must open the malicious file; successful exploitation exposes process memory and can reveal addresses used to bypass ASLR, with no reported integrity or availability impact.

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 <=23.6.8
- Affected versionversion=24.0 <=24.5
