Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-03 03:31 – Updated: 2024-05-03 03:31PDF-XChange Editor addScript Type Confusion Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of PDF-XChange Editor. 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 implementation of the addScript method. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a type confusion condition. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-21338.

GHSA-G4RW-8M5Q-6453
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-08-25 20:45 – Updated: 2023-06-13 20:26Affected versions of rgb crate allow viewing and modifying data of any type T wrapped in RGB as bytes, and do not correctly constrain RGB and other wrapper structures to the types for which it is safe to do so.
Safety violation possible for a type wrapped in RGB and similar wrapper structures:
- If T contains padding, viewing it as bytes may lead to exposure of contents of uninitialized memory.
- If T contains a pointer, modifying it as bytes may lead to dereferencing of arbitrary pointers.
- Any safety and/or validity invariants for T may be violated.
The issue was resolved by requiring all types wrapped in structures provided by RGB crate to implement an unsafe marker trait.
