Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: After Effects versions 25.1, 24.6.4 and earlier

Description: The issue is a NULL Pointer Dereference that could result in an application denial-of-service. An attacker could exploit this to crash the application, leading to a denial-of-service condition. Exploitation requires user interaction, where a victim must open a malicious file.
