Adobe Media Encoder version 15.1 (and earlier) is affected by an improper memory access vulnerability when parsing a crafted .SVG file. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to execute code 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 performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
