Foxit 3D Plugin Beta 9.7.0.29430 NULL Pointer Dereference Vulnerability

medium Nessus Plugin ID 132633

Synopsis

The remote Windows host has a Foxit plugin installed that is affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

Description

The version of the Foxit 3D plugin installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 9.7.0.29430. It is, therefore affected by a NULL pointer dereference flaw due to improper validation of image data when parsing certain files with incorrect image information. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user into opening a specially crafted image, to cause a denial of service condition when the application attempts to read or write memory with a NULL pointer.

Solution

Upgrade to Foxit 3D Plugin Beta 9.7.0.29430 or later
