High CVSS 7.8

CVE-2026-57250

Foxit Pdf Editor

When the application opens a PDF and JavaScript resets the form fields, the script re-enters the interface. The underlying native object is damaged, but the application does not perform validation. The function call on the damaged object leads to the application crashing.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable with local access to the machine and without authentication — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
Impact
An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
Weakness
Already-freed memory is reused, letting the attacker reclaim it and hijack execution.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
