CVE-2026-27313: Heap-based Buffer Overflow (CWE-122) in Adobe Bridge
Bridge versions 16.0.2, 15.1.4 and earlier are affected by a Heap-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
Adobe Bridge versions 16.0.2, 15.1.4, and earlier contain a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) vulnerability. This vulnerability can be triggered when a user opens a malicious file, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution within the context of the current user. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates the attack requires local access with low complexity, no privileges, but user interaction is necessary. Confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts are all rated high.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the same privileges as the current user, potentially leading to full compromise of the user's environment. The attack requires the victim to open a malicious file, so social engineering or delivery of a crafted file is necessary. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or temporary workaround has been documented in the provided data. Users should exercise caution when opening files from untrusted sources until a patch is available.
