CVE-2018-9937

Estado: ModificadaAlta (8.8)—

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Foxit Reader 9.0.0.29935. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of subform elements. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a type confusion condition. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-5371.

Se requiere de interacción del usuario para explotar esta vulnerabilidad en la que el objetivo debe visitar una página maliciosa o abrir un archivo malicioso. Este error en concreto existe en el análisis de elementos subform. El problema deriva de la falta de validación correcta de información proporcionada por el usuario, lo que puede dar como resultado una condición de confusión de tipos. Un atacante podría aprovecharse de esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto del actual proceso. Anteriormente era ZDI-CAN-5371."
