Adobe After Effects version 18.2 (and earlier) is affected by a heap corruption vulnerability when parsing a specially crafted file. An unauthenticated attacker could leverage this vulnerability to achieve arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
