Technical details

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability (CWE-787) exists in Adobe Media Encoder versions 26.2.2 and 25.6.5 and earlier. The flaw is triggered when the application processes a specially crafted file, leading to memory corruption. An attacker can leverage this to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. The attack vector is local, requiring a user to manually open a malicious file (User Interaction: Required). Adobe has released patches in versions 26.3 and 25.6.6 to address this issue.
