Memory disclosure via out-of-bounds read
Published Nov 21, 2024 · Updated Nov 21, 2024
Out-of-bounds read in Adobe InDesign 19.5 and earlier and 20.0 allows attackers to disclose sensitive memory through a malicious file. InDesign reads beyond valid buffer bounds while processing the crafted file, but Adobe has not disclosed the affected parser, file format, or code-level locus. Exploitation requires a user to open the file; the leak can reveal process memory and assist an ASLR bypass, 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.
