Memory disclosure via malicious document out-of-bounds read
Published Dec 10, 2024 · Updated Dec 11, 2024
Out-of-bounds read in Adobe InDesign ID19.5 and ID18.5.4 and earlier allows attackers to disclose sensitive memory via a malicious file. Adobe has not disclosed the affected parser or the unchecked operation that reads beyond its intended memory boundary. A victim must open the crafted file; exposed memory can reveal information useful for bypassing mitigations such as ASLR.
