Code execution via malformed PDF dimensions
Published May 23, 2025 · Updated May 23, 2025
Out-of-bounds write in Mobile Dynamix PrinterShare Mobile Print 12.15.01 allows remote attackers to execute code through a crafted PDF. The libpdfrender.so drawPage routine processes attacker-controlled dimensions and structure without sufficient pointer bounds validation. Opening the PDF reaches ActivityPrintDocuments; the public proof of concept demonstrates controlled memory corruption and a SIGSEGV crash, not completed code execution.
