This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on vulnerable installations of Adobe Reader DC. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.The specific flaw exists within the handling of FlateDecode streams. A crafted FlateDecode stream can trigger a read past the end of an allocated buffer. Failed attacks may cause a denial-of-service condition. The title and technical details have been changed to better reflect the vulnerability information. Adobe Reader, etc. are all products of Adobe (Adobe) in the United States.
