Adobe Illustrator version 25.2.3 (and earlier) is affected by an memory 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 reads or writes to a buffer using an index or pointer that references a memory location after the end of the buffer.
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
