Frequently Asked Questions

1

What does an attacker need to do to trigger this issue?

The victim must open or otherwise process a crafted PDF containing PRC data with a triangular fan texture mesh that uses invalid vertex indices. The CVSS vector indicates local attack vector, no privileges required, and user interaction required.

2

What is the likely impact if exploitation succeeds?

The vulnerable PRC parser can perform a heap-based out-of-bounds write, causing memory corruption. The stated potential impact includes application crash, while the CVSS vector rates confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact as high.

3

How can I determine whether a PDF may be attempting to exploit this vulnerability?

Inspect suspicious PDFs for embedded PRC content, particularly triangular fan texture meshes with malformed or out-of-range vertex indices. The provided information does not identify affected Foxit versions or a specific detection signature.
