Technical details

The vulnerability is an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) that occurs in Substance3D Stager versions 3.1.6 and earlier. The flaw allows arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation requires user interaction—specifically, a victim must open a malicious file. The attack vector is local, initiated through file handling. An attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running the application. Adobe has issued patches; users should update to versions later than 3.1.6.
