Details
A vulnerability, which was classified as very critical, was found in Adobe InDesign CS4 up to 6.0 (Image Processing Software). This affects an unknown part in the library ibfs32.dll. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
Untrusted search path vulnerability in Adobe InDesign CS4 6.0, InDesign CS5 7.0.2 and earlier, Adobe InDesign Server CS5 7.0.2 and earlier, and Adobe InCopy CS5 7.0.2 and earlier allows local users, and possibly remote attackers, to execute arbitrary code and conduct DLL hijacking attacks via a Trojan horse ibfs32.dll that is located in the same folder as an .indl, .indp, .indt, or .inx file.
