Autodesk Revit 2024.x < 2024.2.2 / 2025.x < 2025.3 PDF File Parsing Out-of-Bounds Write (ADSK-SA-2024-0018)

high Nessus Plugin ID 209289

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote Windows host is affected by an out-of-bounds write vulnerability.

Description

The version of Autodesk Revit installed on the remote Windows host is 2024.x prior to 2024.2.2 or 2025.x prior to 2025.3. It is, therefore, affected by an out-of-bounds write vulnerability:

- A maliciously crafted PDF file, when parsed through Autodesk Revit, can force an Out-of-Bounds Write. A malicious actor can leverage this vulnerability to cause a crash, write sensitive data, or execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process. (CVE-2024-7993)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Autodesk Revit 2024.2.2 or 2025.3 or later.
