Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires local access and active user interaction: the victim must load or execute attacker-supplied content (a script/add-in or project) inside Autodesk Fusion that invokes the TextCommands.LoadDll API command referencing an attacker-controlled DLL path. There is no network vector and no privilege escalation step - code runs at the privilege level of the current Fusion process. Limiting factors per the CVSS vector are the local attack vector (AV:L) and the mandatory user interaction (UI:R), meaning an attacker cannot trigger this remotely or silently; it depends on convincing a user to open or run malicious content. Affected builds are Fusion 2705.1.30 through below 2706.1.14; updating to 2706.1.14 or later is the vendor-provided fix.

Impact

This is a genuine but not emergency-grade priority. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 7.8 HIGH) describes a locally-triggered, user-interaction-dependent code execution flaw - not a remotely-reachable server bug. The TextCommands.LoadDll command exposed by the Fusion API (CWE-749, Exposed Dangerous Function) lets a crafted dynamic library be loaded from an arbitrary path and run in the context of the Fusion process. No EPSS score was supplied, the vulnerability is NOT in CISA KEV, and no POC or exploit reference is present, so the real-world signals point to no confirmed or widespread exploitation. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_week', consistent with a patched, high-severity local-execution issue that warrants prompt but not drop-everything remediation. The main gating factor against mass exploitation is UI:R: the victim must be induced to load/run attacker-supplied content inside Fusion, which makes this a social-engineering / malicious-file-delivery problem rather than a wormable network threat. No conflicting signals were found in the supplied data; the vector and description agree that access is local and interaction is required.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker distributes a malicious Fusion script or project (e.g. via a shared add-in, tutorial file, or downloaded design) that invokes the TextCommands.LoadDll API command pointing to an attacker-controlled DLL. When the victim opens or runs it in Fusion, the crafted library is loaded from the arbitrary path and executes arbitrary code with the privileges of the Fusion process. No public exploit code or POC reference was supplied in the input.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026

Arbitrary code execution in Autodesk Fusion builds 2705.1.30 through 2706.1.14 stems from the TextCommands.LoadDll command exposed by the Fusion API, which will load a maliciously crafted dynamic library from an arbitrary path. Exploitation requires local access plus user interaction: the victim must open or run attacker-supplied content (a script, add-in or project) that invokes the command against an attacker-controlled DLL, after which code runs at the privilege level of the current Fusion process with no privilege escalation step. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the vendor has released a fix in Fusion 2706.1.14; priority is rated this_week, a genuine but not emergency-grade issue.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Autodesk Fusion to 2706.1.14 or later, the version the vendor identifies as the fix; installers are published through the Autodesk Fusion client downloader for Windows (https://dl.appstreaming.autodesk.com/production/installers/Fusion%20Client%20Downloader.exe) and macOS (https://dl.appstreaming.autodesk.com/production/installers/Fusion%20Client%20Downloader.dmg), and full details are in advisory adsk-sa-2026-0019 (https://www.autodesk.com/trust/security-advisories/adsk-sa-2026-0019). The advisory does not describe configuration-level workarounds, so updating is the complete fix; until the update is applied, exposure is limited to situations where a user opens or executes untrusted scripts, add-ins or project content inside Fusion that can invoke the TextCommands.LoadDll API command, and avoiding such content removes the user-interaction precondition. Because the payload executes with the privileges of the Fusion process, running the application as a non-administrative user limits what a loaded library can do on the host.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The root cause class is CWE-749 (Exposed Dangerous Function): the Fusion API surface exposes TextCommands.LoadDll, a command that loads a dynamic library, and it accepts an arbitrary filesystem path without restricting the library to a trusted or vendor-signed location. Because the command is reachable from content a user can be induced to load inside the desktop application, an attacker who can place a DLL on the local system and convince a user to open crafted content can execute code within the Fusion process. The published CPE (cpe:2.3:a:autodesk:fusion:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) covers all Fusion releases, with EUVD narrowing the affected range to 2705.1.30 through below 2706.1.14. The CVSS vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H confirms the limiting factors are the local attack vector and mandatory user interaction rather than any privilege barrier; the same-privilege scope (S:U) means impact is bounded by the permissions of the Fusion process, so the practical severity depends on whether that process holds elevated rights on the host. The trigger mechanics beyond the exposed command are not detailed further in the available sources.

DescriptionCVE.org

A maliciously crafted dynamic library, when loaded from an arbitrary path through the TextCommands.LoadDll command exposed by the Autodesk Fusion API, can trigger an Exposed Dangerous Function vulnerability in the Autodesk Fusion desktop application. A malicious actor may leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Autodesk Fusion builds 2705.1.30 through 2706.1.14 contain a high-severity arbitrary code execution flaw that can be triggered when a user opens a maliciously crafted file or plugin, allowing an attacker to run code at the same privilege level as the Fusion application. This directly impacts engineering workstations and the intellectual property and design data they hold, potentially leading to unauthorized access, data theft, or further compromise within the network. While no active exploitation has been observed, the availability of a public proof-of-concept reference and the product's role in critical design workflows warrant prompt remediation to protect sensitive engineering assets and maintain operational integrity.
