Technical details

The vulnerability stems from a violation of secure design principles in Audition's media file parsing logic, allowing arbitrary code execution in the local context with user interaction. The attack vector is local with low attack complexity, requiring no privileges but user interaction (opening a malicious file); scope is changed, meaning the vulnerability can affect resources beyond the vulnerable component. A fix is available in versions 27.0 and 26.5.3.
