Technical details

A memory corruption vulnerability exists in Autodesk 3ds Max due to an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) during the parsing of RGB files. By providing a specially crafted RGB file, an attacker can trigger this vulnerability to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process. The attack vector is local, meaning a user must be tricked into opening the malicious file. The vulnerability affects versions of 3ds Max 2026 prior to version 2026.3.2, where a fix has been implemented.
