Technical details

A path traversal vulnerability (CWE-22) exists in Adobe Animate due to improper limitation of pathnames to restricted directories. The flaw is triggered when the application processes a maliciously crafted file, requiring user interaction (UI:R). Successful exploitation allows an attacker to escape the intended directory structure, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. The vulnerability has a 'Changed' scope (S:C), indicating it can impact components beyond the immediate software environment. Patches are available in versions 23.0.16 and 24.0.14.
