Foxit Reader JPEG2000 Parsing Heap-Based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution
Vulnerability
ZDI-16-610: November 22nd, 2016
CVSS Score
6.8, (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P)
Affected Vendors
Foxit
Affected Products
Reader
Vulnerability Details
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of Foxit 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 JPEG2000 parsing. The issue results from the
lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying
it to a heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to
execute code under the context of the current process.
Vendor Response
Foxit has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details can be

Foxit Reader JPEG2000 Parsing Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure
Vulnerability
ZDI-16-611: November 22nd, 2016

Reader
Vulnerability Details
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on
vulnerable installations of Foxit 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 handling of JPEG2000 images. The process
does not properly validate user-supplied data which can result in a read past
the end of an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction
with other vulnerabilities to execute code in the context of the current
process.
