File must be opened locally (AV:L, UI:R) with no prior privileges (PR:N); memory-corruption code execution yields full C/I/A impact in the user context.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
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 victim opens a maliciously crafted media/project file, letting an attacker run code with the privileges of the current user. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.8 (local vector, requires user interaction), and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that a victim open an attacker-crafted malicious file in Adobe Audition - this user interaction (UI:R) is the primary gating condition and cannot be bypassed remotely. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H yields 7.8 (High): exploitation is local and requires no prior privileges but does require user interaction - the AV:L reflects that the malicious file must reach and be opened on the victim's machine rather than exploited over a network. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker crafts a malicious Audition session or audio file embedding data that triggers the out-of-bounds write, then delivers it via email, a shared project, or a download link to a target audio engineer. When the victim opens the file in Adobe Audition, memory is corrupted and attacker-supplied code executes with the victim's privileges. … |
| Remediation | Apply the updated version of Adobe Audition as specified in Adobe advisory APSB26-71 (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/audition/apsb26-71.html); the exact fixed build number is listed there and was not included in the raw input, so it is not reproduced here to avoid inventing a version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: notify Adobe Audition users to avoid opening media files from untrusted sources and consider disabling the application until mitigation is confirmed. …
