Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the target to open or import a maliciously crafted TIF image file within an affected Autodesk product version. The CVSS vector AV:L/UI:R confirms the attack is local (the file must be accessible on the victim's machine or network share) and requires active user interaction (the user must initiate the image import). No special configuration, enabled feature flag, or elevated privilege is required on the victim's side - the vulnerable code path is exercised during normal image import. Exploitation is limited by the necessity of delivering a crafted file to the target and inducing them to import it; remote unauthenticated network exploitation of a listening service is not possible with this attack vector.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (Medium) is consistent with the vector CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H: local delivery, no privilege requirement, but mandatory user interaction and impact limited to availability. EPSS data is not provided, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. Real-world risk is moderate for targeted environments: AEC firms and design engineers routinely open externally sourced drawing files and image assets, making social engineering delivery plausible. Automated or internet-scale exploitation is not feasible given the AV:L and UI:R constraints. The 'Information Disclosure' tag in the EUVD record conflicts with the CVSS C:N rating - this discrepancy should be verified with Autodesk advisory ADSK-SA-2026-0012, as OOB reads commonly leak adjacent memory. Overall this is a genuine but targeted-exploitation-only risk, not an internet-facing emergency.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker targeting an architect or engineer at an AEC firm crafts a malicious TIF file and delivers it via email, project collaboration platform, or asset exchange portal. When the victim imports the file into Revit or AutoCAD - a routine operation in design workflows - the image parsing library reads out of bounds, causing the application to crash. Repeated delivery could prevent productive use of the design tool. No public proof-of-concept exploit has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 06, 2026

Out-of-Bounds Read in Autodesk's image handling library crashes Revit and AutoCAD when a user opens a maliciously crafted TIF file during image import. Affected products span Revit 2024, 2026, and 2027 as well as AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT 2027, all below vendor-specified fix versions. The attack is local and requires user interaction, limiting automated mass exploitation, but remains a viable denial-of-service vector in targeted scenarios against AEC professionals who routinely handle externally sourced CAD assets. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to the following fixed releases: Revit 2024.3.5 or later, Revit 2026.5.0 or later, Revit 2027.1.0 or later, AutoCAD 2027.1.0 or later, and AutoCAD LT 2027.1.0 or later. The patch is confirmed available per vendor advisory ADSK-SA-2026-0012 at https://www.autodesk.com/trust/security-advisories/adsk-sa-2026-0012. For organizations unable to patch immediately, restrict image import workflows so that TIF files sourced from untrusted external parties are not opened directly in affected applications - this limits the attack surface to verified internal assets. Additionally, consider configuring file-type filters at email gateways and file-sharing platforms to quarantine or flag inbound TIF files before they reach designer workstations, accepting the trade-off of delayed asset delivery. Exact fix versions are confirmed from EUVD data; no independently verified commit-level or release-note reference was available in the provided input.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CWE-125 (Out-of-Bounds Read) identifies the root cause: the image parsing library processes a TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) file without adequately validating field or offset values before performing memory reads, allowing a crafted file to cause a read beyond the allocated buffer boundary. TIFF is a complex, multi-layer container format with extensive metadata fields, making it a historically common attack surface in image-processing libraries. The flaw is triggered during the image import workflow rather than on file open broadly, meaning it resides specifically in the image-processing pipeline. Affected CPE scope covers Revit 2024.0.0-2024.3.5, Revit 2026.0.0-2026.5.0, Revit 2027.0.0-2027.1.0, AutoCAD 2027.0.0-2027.1.0, and AutoCAD LT 2027.0.0-2027.1.0, per EUVD-2026-54292. The vulnerability tags include Information Disclosure and Buffer Overflow alongside Denial of Service, suggesting the OOB read may have secondary memory-leakage implications not captured in the NVD description.

Attack Technique

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.

Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
