Impact
An out‑of‑bounds write in Substance3D‑Designer can be leveraged to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. The flaw is a classic out‑of‑bounds write (CWE‑787) and arises when processing a malicious file. Consequently, an attacker who succeeds in getting a user to open such a file would gain code execution privileges with the same privileges as that user.
Affected Systems
Adobe Substance3D Designer versions 15.1.0 and earlier are affected. The vulnerability is confined to these legacy releases; newer versions are not susceptible.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 7.8 denotes a high severity. The EPSS score is not available, and the flaw is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog. Exploitation requires user interaction – a victim must open a malicious file. Therefore, the risk is high for users who handle untrusted files, but the attack vector is local and requires no network access.
