Technical details
An integer underflow (CWE-191) exists in Adobe FrameMaker versions 2022.8 and earlier. The vulnerability occurs during the parsing of malformed files, where a wrap-around error leads to memory corruption. An attacker can exploit this by convincing a user to open a specially crafted document, potentially achieving arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. The attack vector is local (AV:L) because it requires the victim to download and open a file, and user interaction (UI:R) is a prerequisite for successful exploitation.
