CVE-2017-16396

An issue was discovered in Adobe Acrobat and Reader: 2017.012.20098 and earlier versions, 2017.011.30066 and earlier versions, 2015.006.30355 and earlier versions, and 11.0.22 and earlier versions.

If an attacker can adequately control the accessible memory then this vulnerability can be leveraged to achieve arbitrary code execution.
