CVE-2026-57244 Details
Description
After JavaScript resetting the form, the synchronization process lacks re-entry protection and object lifecycle verification, resulting in the failure of the control pointer during the traversal process. After the pointer fails, it still continues to dereference, causing the application to crash.
A use-after-free vulnerability has been identified in Foxit PDF Reader and Foxit PDF Editor for Windows and Mac. This vulnerability occurs when the application processes PDFs containing specific JavaScript, leading to the use of invalid objects or pointers. As a result, the application may crash, and attackers could exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code.
Users can update to the latest versions of Foxit PDF Reader or Foxit PDF Editor. For Windows, the updated versions are Foxit PDF Reader 2026.1.2 and Foxit PDF Editor 2026.1.2. For Mac, the latest versions are Foxit PDF Editor for Mac 2026.1.2/14.0.5 and Foxit PDF Reader for Mac 2026.1.2.
