Sensitive memory disclosure via out-of-bounds read
Published Aug 25, 2026 · Updated Aug 27, 2026
Out-of-bounds read in Adobe Illustrator 2025 29.8.9 and earlier and 2026 30.6 and earlier allows attackers to disclose sensitive memory. Adobe identifies an out-of-bounds read during malicious-file processing but has not disclosed the parser, file format, or faulty bounds operation. Exploitation requires a victim to open the file; the documented consequence is memory disclosure, with no integrity or availability impact.
