Arbitrary code execution via unchecked SVG buffer copy
Published Aug 24, 2026 · Updated Aug 24, 2026
Memory corruption in Autodesk 3ds Max 2026 and 2027 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code through crafted SVG files. The SVG parser copies attacker-controlled data without checking that it fits the destination buffer, corrupting process memory. Exploitation requires a user to open the crafted file and runs code with the privileges of the current process.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=2026.0.0 <2026.3.4
- Affected versionversion=2027.0.0 <2027.2.0
