Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | User interaction is required: a victim must actively open a malicious PDF file using an affected version of Adobe Acrobat Reader (versions 24.001.30365 or 26.001.21651 or earlier). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 5.5 Medium score reflects a constrained but realistic risk profile. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker crafts a malicious PDF file engineered to trigger an out-of-bounds read during Acrobat Reader's document parsing - for example, by embedding a malformed stream object with an incorrect length field. The attacker delivers the file via phishing email or a drive-by download, and when the victim opens it in an affected version of Acrobat Reader, the parser reads beyond the allocated buffer and exposes adjacent memory contents - potentially including session tokens, cached credentials, or decrypted document key material - which the attacker could subsequently extract if combined with a secondary exfiltration technique. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade Adobe Acrobat Reader to a version beyond 24.001.30365 (on the 24.x track) or beyond 26.001.21651 (on the 26.x track) per Adobe Security Bulletin APSB26-63 at https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/acrobat/apsb26-63.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
