CVE-2025-61799 is an out-of-bounds read vulnerability classified under CWE-125 affecting Adobe Dimension versions 4.1.4 and earlier. The flaw arises during the parsing of crafted files, where the software reads beyond the allocated memory buffer, potentially exposing sensitive data or enabling memory corruption. This memory corruption can be leveraged by attackers to execute arbitrary code within the context of the current user, thereby compromising system confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The attack vector requires local access and user interaction, specifically the victim opening a maliciously crafted file, which limits remote exploitation but still poses a significant risk through phishing or social engineering. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.8, reflecting high severity due to the potential for full compromise of affected systems. No patches or official fixes have been published yet, and no known exploits are currently active in the wild. Adobe Dimension is widely used in creative and design industries for 3D content creation, making this vulnerability particularly relevant to organizations relying on this software for digital media production. The vulnerability’s exploitation could lead to unauthorized code execution, data leakage, or disruption of design workflows.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-61799 can be substantial, especially for those in the digital media, advertising, architecture, and manufacturing sectors that utilize Adobe Dimension for 3D modeling and rendering. Exploitation could result in unauthorized access to sensitive design files, intellectual property theft, or disruption of critical creative processes. The ability to execute code as the current user could allow attackers to deploy malware, move laterally within networks, or exfiltrate data. Given the user interaction requirement, phishing campaigns or malicious file distribution via email or shared drives are likely attack vectors. The confidentiality and integrity of proprietary designs and client data are at risk, potentially leading to financial losses and reputational damage. Additionally, disruption of availability could delay project timelines and impact business operations. Organizations with weak endpoint security or insufficient user training are particularly vulnerable.

To mitigate this vulnerability, European organizations should implement several targeted measures: 1) Educate users about the risks of opening files from untrusted sources, emphasizing caution with unexpected or unsolicited files. 2) Employ application whitelisting and sandboxing techniques to restrict Adobe Dimension’s ability to execute arbitrary code or access sensitive system resources. 3) Monitor and control file sharing channels to prevent distribution of malicious files, including email filtering and endpoint detection solutions that scan for suspicious file behavior. 4) Apply strict network segmentation to limit lateral movement if a compromise occurs. 5) Maintain up-to-date backups of critical design data to enable recovery in case of disruption. 6) Regularly check for and apply security updates from Adobe as soon as patches become available. 7) Consider deploying endpoint protection platforms capable of detecting exploitation attempts related to out-of-bounds memory reads. 8) Implement least privilege principles for user accounts running Adobe Dimension to minimize impact if exploited.
