CVE-2026-48374 is a path traversal vulnerability in Adobe Bridge caused by improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory. When Adobe Bridge processes a malicious file, an attacker can cause the application to access files and directories outside the intended scope. Available reporting consistently describes the core issue as arbitrary file system read, although some secondary reporting also characterizes the outcome more broadly as arbitrary code execution. Based on the specific vulnerability description provided, the clearest supported behavior is unauthorized read access to files outside the restricted directory boundary.
