Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Foxit PDF Reader version 11.1.0.52543
Description
This issue allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations. User interaction is required, where the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The flaw exists within the handling of
Doc objects due to the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on it. An attacker can leverage this, in conjunction with other issues, to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.Recommendations
For Foxit PDF Reader version 11.1.0.52543, consider disabling the handling of
Doc objects as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to potentially malicious pages or files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.Fix
