Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a victim to open or process a maliciously crafted .stack.json file within the Autodesk Fusion Post Processor Utility extension (versions 5.0.1 up to, but not including, 5.0.2). The required file-open user interaction (UI:R) is the primary limiting factor: there is no remote, zero-click path - an attacker must get the hostile .stack.json in front of a user and have them load it. No authentication is required of the attacker (PR:N), and attack complexity is low (AC:L) once the file is opened. Commands run only in the context of the current user, so impact is bounded by that user's privileges.

Impact

This is a genuine but interaction-gated threat rather than a wormable, unauthenticated-on-its-own flaw. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 8.8) scores network attack vector with no privileges, but the UI:R component is decisive: exploitation requires a victim to open or process a maliciously crafted .stack.json file in the Autodesk Fusion Post Processor Utility, so 'AV:N' here reflects file delivery over a network rather than a directly reachable network service. The vendor-assigned priority is 'this_week' (not act_now/emergency), and there is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score supplied, so there is no evidence of active exploitation or high predicted exploitation probability. No public exploit or PoC reference is present in the input. Net: treat this as a worth-patching, promptly-remediable issue (high impact if a user is socially engineered into opening a hostile file) but not a drop-everything emergency; the file-open requirement and absence of exploitation signals materially lower real-world urgency versus the raw 8.8.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious .stack.json file carrying a trusted-Markdown injection payload and delivers it to a victim (e.g., via a shared post-processor project, email, or download). When the victim opens or processes the file in the Autodesk Fusion Post Processor Utility, injected content executes arbitrary commands in the context of the current user. No public exploit code or PoC reference is identified in the available data; the low attack complexity (AC:L) means that once a user opens the crafted file, no additional specialized conditions are needed.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026

Command injection in the Autodesk Fusion Post Processor Utility extension (5.0.1 up to, but not including, 5.0.2) allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands in the context of the current user when a victim opens a maliciously crafted .stack.json file. The attacker needs no credentials and the complexity is low, but exploitation is gated by user interaction: the hostile file must be delivered to and loaded by the target, so there is no zero-click remote path. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not in CISA KEV; impact is bounded by the privileges of the user who opens the file.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update the Autodesk Fusion Post Processor Utility extension to version 5.0.2, available from the Visual Studio Marketplace listing (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Autodesk.hsm-post-processor) as referenced by Autodesk advisory adsk-sa-2026-0018 (https://www.autodesk.com/trust/security-advisories/adsk-sa-2026-0018); no later fixed branches are listed in the available data. Because the assessed exploitation path requires a victim to open or process a maliciously crafted .stack.json file, environments that cannot update immediately reduce exposure by preventing untrusted .stack.json post-processor stack files from being loaded in the extension and by verifying the provenance of such files before opening them, accepting that this relies on user behavior rather than a technical control and does not address the underlying command injection. Updating to 5.0.2 is the complete fix.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw is a CWE-77 command injection reachable through a trusted Markdown injection path in the Autodesk Fusion Post Processor Utility extension, which is distributed through the Visual Studio Marketplace listing for Autodesk.hsm-post-processor. A specially crafted .stack.json file is parsed by the extension and its content is handled as trusted Markdown, allowing injected content to reach a command execution sink; the trigger mechanics beyond the file being opened are not described in the available sources. The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H confirms network-vector delivery, low complexity, no privileges required of the attacker, and a required user action, with high confidentiality, integrity and availability impact that remains scoped to the current user's privileges rather than escalating beyond them. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:autodesk:fusion_post_processor_utility:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* identifies the affected package family, with EUVD narrowing the vulnerable range to 5.0.1 before 5.0.2.

DescriptionNVD

A maliciously crafted .stack.json file can trigger a trusted Markdown injection vulnerability in Autodesk Fusion Post Processor Utility Extension. A malicious actor may exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands in the context of the current user.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Autodesk Fusion's Post Processor Utility extension (versions 5.0.1) contains a command injection vulnerability that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code when a user opens a maliciously crafted .stack.json file. This impacts engineering workstations running the affected extension, potentially leading to unauthorized access or data compromise under the user's privileges. Leadership should prioritize patching due to the high severity and the reliance on user interaction, which is common in design workflows.
