Description

An issue was discovered in Adobe Acrobat and Reader: 2017.012.20098 and earlier versions, 2017.011.30066 and earlier versions, 2015.006.30355 and earlier versions, and 11.0.22 and earlier versions. This vulnerability is due to a computation that accesses a pointer that has not been initialized; the computation occurs during internal AST thread manipulation. In this case, a computation defines a read from an unexpected memory location. Therefore, an attacker might be able to read sensitive portions of memory.

Affected configurations

• adobe acrobat (<= 11.0.22) • adobe acrobat (>= 17.0 <= 17.011.30066) • adobe acrobat dc (>= - <= 17.012.20098) • adobe acrobat dc (>= 15.0 <= 15.006.30355) • adobe acrobat reader (<= 11.0.22) • adobe acrobat reader (>= 17.0 <= 17.011.30066) • adobe acrobat reader dc (>= - <= 17.012.20098) • adobe acrobat reader dc (>= 15.0 <= 15.006.30355)
