Code execution via malicious-file heap overflow
Published Apr 14, 2026 · Updated Apr 14, 2026
Heap-based buffer overflow in Adobe Bridge 15.1.4 and earlier and 16.0.2 and earlier allows attackers to execute code via a malicious file. Adobe has not disclosed the affected parser or the specific memory operation that overruns its heap allocation while processing the file. A victim must open the malicious file, after which code executes with the current user's privileges.
