Adobe Digital Editions APSB18-27 Multiple Heap Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

Adobe Digital Editions is prone to multiple heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the application fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer.

Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code within the context of the user running the affected application. This may lead to a memory leak.

Adobe Digital Editions 4.5.8 and prior versions are affected.
