Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Foxit PDF Reader version 11.2.2.53575

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, specifically when the application handles certain JavaScript actions, allowing an attacker to trigger a read past the end of an allocated object. This can be leveraged in conjunction with other issues to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.

Recommendations For Foxit PDF Reader version 11.2.2.53575, consider disabling JavaScript handling for 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 vulnerability.
