Technical details
The vulnerability is an out-of-bounds write issue in Adobe Illustrator that can be triggered when processing a specially crafted file. Exploitation requires user interaction—a victim must open a malicious file—but no elevated privileges are needed beyond the current user context. A successful attack results in arbitrary code execution with the same privileges as the user running Illustrator, allowing an attacker to install malware, steal data, or compromise the system. The vulnerability has been documented under CVE-2026-75992 with a CVSS score of 7.8 (high severity), though it has not been observed in active exploitation as of the publication date.
