Technical details

An improper input validation vulnerability (CWE-20) exists in the Adobe Content Authenticity (CAI) SDKs and command-line tools. The flaw allows a local attacker to provide malformed input that the application fails to process correctly, leading to an unexpected crash and denial-of-service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability affects the Rust SDK, JavaScript SDK, and the C2PA command-line tool. No user interaction is required for exploitation beyond the application processing the malicious input. Patches have been released in Rust SDK v0.85.2, C2PA Tool v0.26.65, and JS SDK v0.27.0.
