Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Adobe InDesign versions ID18.5 and earlier Adobe InDesign versions ID17.4.2 and earlier

Description The issue is related to an out-of-bounds read that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage this to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation requires user interaction, where a victim must open a malicious file.

Recommendations For Adobe InDesign versions ID18.5 and earlier, update to a version later than ID18.5 to resolve the issue. For Adobe InDesign versions ID17.4.2 and earlier, update to a version later than ID17.4.2 to resolve the issue.
