Assigner: MITRE

Description
An issue was discovered in Foxit PDF and Editor for Windows and macOS before 13.2 and 2025 before 2025.2. When pages in a PDF are deleted via JavaScript, the application may fail to properly update internal states. Subsequent annotation management operations assume these states are valid, causing dereference of invalid or released memory. This can lead to memory corruption, application crashes, and potentially allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability occurs in Foxit PDF and Editor for Windows and macOS before versions 13.2 and 2025 before 2025.2. When pages in a PDF are deleted using JavaScript, the application may not properly update its internal states. Later operations that manage annotations assume these states are still valid, which can cause the application to dereference invalid or released memory. This can result in memory corruption, application crashes, and potentially allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can lead to memory corruption and application crashes, which may disrupt normal use of the Foxit PDF and Editor software. More seriously, it could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on your system, potentially compromising your device's security and data.

Mitigation Strategies
