Sensitive-memory disclosure via malicious file
Published Aug 12, 2025 · Updated Aug 13, 2025
Out-of-bounds read in Adobe FrameMaker 2020.8 and 2022.6 and earlier allows local users to disclose sensitive memory via a malicious file. Adobe has not disclosed the affected parser, file format, or bounds-checking error that causes the read beyond allocated memory. Exploitation requires a victim to open the malicious file, and the published impact is limited to memory disclosure.
