Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Tungsten Automation Power PDF (affected versions not specified)

Description This issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code 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 parsing of PDF files due to the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this to execute code in the context of the current process.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
