CVE-2025-55314

An issue was discovered in Foxit PDF and Editor for Windows and macOS before 13.2 and 2025 before 2025.2. When pages in a PDF are deleted via JavaScript, the application may fail to properly update internal states. Subsequent annotation management operations assume these states are valid, causing dereference of invalid or released memory. This can lead to memory corruption, application crashes, and potentially allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Summary		(es) Se descubrió un problema en Foxit PDF y Editor para Windows y macOS antes de 13.2 y 2025 antes de 2025.2. Cuando se eliminan páginas en un PDF a través de JavaScript, la aplicación puede no actualizar correctamente los estados internos. Las operaciones posteriores de gestión de anotaciones asumen que estos estados son válidos, lo que provoca la desreferenciación de memoria inválida o liberada. Esto puede llevar a corrupción de memoria, fallos de la aplicación y potencialmente permitir a un atacante ejecutar código arbitrario.
