ZDI-19-492: Adobe Acrobat Pro DC PostScript File Parsing Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure Vulnerability

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on vulnerable installations of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. 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 charstrings in PostScript files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer.
