Technical details

Multiple out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) vulnerabilities exist in After Effects' file parsing logic, along with buffer overflows and path traversal issues. Exploitation requires user interaction—opening a malicious file locally—and results in arbitrary code execution within the current user's security context. Adobe has not reported active exploits in the wild for these issues.
