What to do

AI-suggested

1. 2. Temporarily disable JavaScript execution within Foxit PDF Reader and Editor to prevent exploitation via malicious scripts embedded in PDFs. 3. Implement advanced email filtering and sandboxing solutions to detect and block malicious PDF attachments before they reach end users. 4. Educate users about the risks of opening unsolicited or suspicious PDF files, especially those received via email. 5. Employ endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools to monitor for abnormal process behavior related to PDF readers. 6. Use application whitelisting to restrict execution of unauthorized software and scripts. 7. Regularly audit and update PDF handling policies and ensure that all software versions are kept current. 8. Consider network segmentation to limit the impact of a compromised endpoint. 9. Monitor threat intelligence feeds for any emerging exploits targeting this vulnerability to respond promptly.

Description

An issue was discovered in Foxit PDF and Editor for Windows before 13.2 and 2025 before 2025.2. A crafted PDF containing JavaScript that calls closeDoc() while internal objects are still in use can cause premature release of these objects. This use-after-free vulnerability may lead to memory corruption, potentially resulting in information disclosure when the PDF is opened.
