Description The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow in the dynamic memory of Adobe InDesign, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction, where a victim must open a malicious file, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user.
