CVE-2015-6702

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Adobe Acrobat versions (affected versions not specified) Adobe Reader versions (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to a function called createSquareMesh in Adobe's PDF editing and viewing software, which has inadequate access control mechanisms. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to access protected information in the process memory by providing invalid arguments. A memory-leak issue in Adobe Acrobat and Reader allows attackers to affect the system.

Recommendations For Adobe Acrobat, update to a version that addresses the createSquareMesh function issue. For Adobe Reader, consider disabling the createSquareMesh function as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to sensitive information in PDF files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
