Technical details

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability (CWE-787) exists in Adobe Bridge versions 15.1.6, 16.0.5, and earlier. The flaw is triggered when the application processes a specially crafted file, leading to memory corruption. An attacker can leverage this to achieve arbitrary code execution within the security 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 15.1.7 and 16.0.6 to address this issue.
