Description:
The issue is related to a buffer error, specifically a lack of size checking for input data during buffer copying. This can lead to arbitrary code execution if successfully exploited. The vulnerability can be exploited by a remote attacker.
Recommendations:
For Adobe Acrobat and Reader versions 2020.009.20074 and earlier, update to a version later than 2020.009.20074 to resolve the issue.
For Adobe Acrobat and Reader version 2020.001.30002, update to a version later than 2020.001.30002 to resolve the issue.
For Adobe Acrobat and Reader versions 2017.011.30171 and earlier, update to a version later than 2017.011.30171 to resolve the issue.
For Adobe Acrobat and Reader versions 2015.006.30523 and earlier, update to a version later than 2015.006.30523 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the buffer copying functionality until a patch is available. Restrict access to untrusted PDF files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
