## Technical details

An improper access control vulnerability (CWE-284) exists in Adobe Dreamweaver Desktop versions 21.7 and earlier. The flaw allows for an arbitrary file system read, enabling an attacker to access sensitive files and directories outside of the application's intended scope. Exploitation requires local access and user interaction, specifically requiring a victim to open a malicious file provided by the attacker. The CVSS score of 8.2 reflects a 'Changed' scope, indicating the vulnerability allows the attacker to impact components beyond the security scope of the Dreamweaver application itself. Adobe has addressed this in security bulletin APSB26-62.
