Code execution via malicious file out-of-bounds write
Published May 13, 2025 · Updated May 13, 2025
Out-of-bounds write in Adobe Substance 3D Modeler 1.21.0 and earlier allows local users to execute code through a malicious file. Adobe has not published the affected parser, file format, or the unchecked memory operation that writes beyond its destination buffer. Execution occurs with the current user's privileges only after the victim opens the crafted file, while Adobe reports no known exploitation in the wild.
