Canva Affinity EMF Memory Corruption
2026-03-17
A type confusion vulnerability in the EMF (Enhanced Metafile) functionality of Canva Affinity allows attackers to achieve arbitrary code execution through specially crafted EMF files. The vulnerability affects Affinity version 3.0.1.3808 and requires user interaction to trigger, as victims must open a malicious EMF file. With a CVSS score of 7.8 and local attack vector, this represents a significant risk for users handling untrusted graphic files, though no active exploitation or public POC has been reported.
An out-of-bounds write vulnerability in Canva Affinity's EMF file processing allows attackers to achieve code execution by crafting malicious EMF (Enhanced Metafile) image files. The vulnerability affects Affinity version 3.0.1.3808 and requires user interaction to open the malicious file, but then grants full system compromise with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No evidence of active exploitation or public proof-of-concept exists, and the local attack vector with user interaction requirement reduces immediate risk.
