Technical details

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability (CWE-787) exists in Adobe Bridge versions 15.1.5, 16.0.3, 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 with the privileges of the current user. Exploitation requires local access and user interaction (opening a malicious file). The issue has been addressed in versions 15.1.6 and 16.0.4.
