Audition is affected by an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
AnalysisAI
Arbitrary code execution in Adobe Audition arises from an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) triggered when a user opens a maliciously crafted media/project file, letting an attacker run code with the privileges of the current user. Affects Adobe Audition and was reported by Adobe under advisory APSB26-71. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the victim to open a maliciously crafted file in Adobe Audition - the CVSS vector (AV:L/UI:R) confirms local file-based delivery with mandatory user interaction, so there is no remote, unauthenticated, or automatic trigger. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.8 (High) with vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H - a local attack vector combined with required user interaction, meaning exploitation depends on socially engineering a victim into opening a malicious file rather than any remote/network reachable service. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker crafts a malicious Audition project or audio file with a malformed length/size field and delivers it to a target audio engineer via email, a shared drive, or a download posing as a client's session files. When the victim opens the file in Adobe Audition, the out-of-bounds write corrupts memory and executes attacker-supplied code with the victim's user privileges. … |
| Remediation | Update Adobe Audition to the fixed release identified in Adobe security bulletin APSB26-71 (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/audition/apsb26-71.html); the exact fix version is not included in the provided input data and should be taken directly from that advisory rather than assumed. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: inventory all Adobe Audition installations; notify users not to open media files from untrusted sources; disable Audition on non-production systems if feasible. …
