CVE-2025-21122 is a critical integer underflow vulnerability in Adobe Photoshop Desktop affecting version 25.12 and earlier in the 2024 release line and version 26.1 and earlier in the 2025 release line on Windows and macOS. The flaw is classified as an Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound), where arithmetic on an integer value can produce an unexpectedly small result and lead to unsafe memory handling during processing of a crafted file. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can trigger the issue by convincing a user to open a specially crafted malicious file in Photoshop. Successful exploitation can result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user.
