Technical details

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability (CWE-787) exists in Adobe Audition due to improper validation when processing specific file formats. An attacker can exploit this by convincing a user to open a maliciously crafted file, leading to memory corruption. This corruption can be leveraged to achieve arbitrary code execution within the security context of the current user. The vulnerability affects versions 26.0 and earlier, as well as 25.6.4 and earlier. Adobe has released patches in versions 26.3 and 25.6.6 to address this issue.
