Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

Substance3D – Sampler contains a heap‑based buffer overflow that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user interacting with the application. The flaw is triggered when a specially crafted file is opened. Successful exploitation would give the attacker the same privileges as the current user.

Affected Systems

The affected product is Adobe Substance 3D Sampler. Version information is not disclosed in the advisory.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability scores a CVSS of 7.8, indicating a high severity. It does not appear in the CISA KEV list and no EPSS value is published, so the exact exploitation likelihood is unknown. However, because the attack requires only a malicious file to be opened by a user, the vector is a user‑initiated file opening, making the problem broadly relevant for any user of the application.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update Adobe Substance 3D Sampler to the latest patched version as per the Adobe advisory
  • If an update is not immediately available, avoid opening unknown or unsigned files and consider using file‑type filters
  • Consider running the application in a sandbox or virtual machine to contain potential exploitation
