CVE-2021-36045
XMP Toolkit SDK versions 2020.1 (and earlier) are affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of arbitrary memory.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.93%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
