ZDI-11-069: Adobe Acrobat Reader U3D Texture psd RLE Decompression Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-11-069

February 8, 2011

-- CVE ID:
CVE-2011-0593

-- CVSS:
9, (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:C)

-- Affected Vendors:
Adobe

-- Affected Products:
Adobe Reader

-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of Adobe Acrobat Reader. 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 application's implementation of an
image format supported by the Universal 3D compressed file format. When
decoding the image data provided by the file, the application will use a
supplied size for allocating space for the destination buffer and then
trust the data when decompressing into that buffer. Due to the
decompression being unbounded by the actual buffer size, a buffer
overflow can be triggered leading to code execution under the context of
the application.

-- Vendor Response:
Adobe has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More
details can be found at:
