Vulnerability Spotlight: Foxit PDF Reader JavaScript Array.includes remote code execution vulnerability

Foxit PDF Reader contains a remote code execution vulnerability in its JavaScript engine. A bug exists in the JavaScript reading function that results in a large amount of memory to be allocated, which quickly uses up all available memory. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to then gain the ability to remotely execute code. Foxit aims to be one of the most feature-rich PDF readers on the market, and contains many similar functions to that of Adobe Acrobat Reader. A specially crafted PDF document can trigger an out-of-memory condition which isn’t handled properly.”]
