CVE-2026-75656: Adobe Bridge out-of-bounds read in file handling

CVE-2026-75656 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5.5 · Published 2026-09-22

Adobe Bridge, a digital asset management application, contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could expose sensitive data from system memory. An attacker can exploit this by crafting a malicious file that, when opened by a user, leaks confidential information like passwords or encryption keys. Exploitation requires user interaction but poses a meaningful data exposure risk.
