Code execution via unwarned Launch action
Published Dec 23, 2025 · Updated Dec 23, 2025
Insufficient UI warning in PDFsam Enhanced 7.0.76.15222 allows remote attackers to execute code through a crafted page or file. The Launch action executes dangerous script embedded in attacker-controlled content without displaying a safety warning before the action runs. Exploitation requires the current user to visit the malicious page or open the malicious file, and resulting code runs with that user's privileges.
