Description

This security bulletin contains information about 16 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26419)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26425)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted PDF file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26424)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26423)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26422)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26420)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


7) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26418)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


8) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26395)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted PDF file, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26417)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


10) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26408)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper implementation of security features. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file and execute arbitrary code on the system.


11) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26407)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file and execute arbitrary code on the system.


12) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26406)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper implementation of security features. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file and execute arbitrary code on the system.


13) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26405)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file and execute arbitrary code on the system.


14) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26397)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted PDF file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


15) Violation of Secure Design Principles (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26396)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exits due to unspecified error related to secure design principles. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.


16) Integer underflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26421)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer underflow. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file, trigger an integer underflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
