EUVDB-ID: #VU97917
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 1.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9393
CWE-ID:
CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly impose security restrictions. A remote attacker can use a specially crafted multipart response to execute arbitrary JavaScript under the resource://pdf.js origin and access cross-origin PDF content.
Note, this access is limited to "same site" documents by the Site Isolation feature on desktop clients, however the full cross-origin access is possible on Android installations.
