Code execution via malformed PSD file parsing
Published Aug 6, 2025 · Updated Aug 19, 2025
Out-of-bounds read in PSD parsing in Autodesk 3ds Max 2026 allows attackers to execute code through a malicious PSD file. The PSD import and linking path reads beyond an allocated buffer while parsing crafted file data; Autodesk has not disclosed the responsible function. A user must link or import the file, after which exploitation can crash the application, expose process data, or run code with the current process's privileges.
