Last updated on: 2025-12-18

Assigner: MITRE

Description
An issue was discovered in Foxit PDF and Editor for Windows and macOS before 13.2 and 2025 before 2025.2. They allow potential arbitrary code execution when processing crafted PDF files. The vulnerability stems from insufficient handling of memory allocation failures after assigning an extremely large value to a form field's charLimit property via JavaScript. This can result in memory corruption and may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code by persuading a user to open a malicious file.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in Foxit PDF and Editor for Windows and macOS before versions 13.2 and 2025 before 2025.2. It occurs due to insufficient handling of memory allocation failures when an extremely large value is assigned to a form field's charLimit property via JavaScript in a PDF file. This can cause memory corruption, potentially allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code if a user opens a crafted malicious PDF file.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to arbitrary code execution on the affected system, which means an attacker could run malicious code with the privileges of the user opening the malicious PDF. This could result in system compromise, data theft, or other malicious activities.

Mitigation Strategies

To mitigate this vulnerability, immediately update Foxit PDF and Editor for Windows and macOS to version 13.2 or later, or 2025 version 2025.2 or later. Avoid opening PDF files from untrusted or unknown sources to reduce the risk of exploitation.
