CVE-2025-43578
Acrobat Reader versions 24.001.30235, 20.005.30763, 25.001.20521 and earlier are affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.46%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
