Out-of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure in Adobe Acrobat and Reader 3D PDF Rendering
CVE-2019-7121 is an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in Adobe Acrobat and Reader affecting versions 2019.010.20098 and earlier, 2017.011.30127 and earlier, and 2015.006.30482 and earlier. The flaw is in the 3D PDF rendering path, specifically Adobe’s 3D/U3D handling components including 2d.x3d and rt3d-related code used when processing ECMA-363 Universal 3D File Format content. The vulnerable condition can be triggered by a crafted PDF containing 3D content that references malformed external texture images. Reported analysis places the fault in the sandboxed process, with the crash observed near 2d!png_set_filter_heuristics during image parsing/loading. Successful exploitation results in an out-of-bounds memory read and can disclose process memory.
