advisory.

  - Adobe Framemaker version 2020.0.1 (and earlier) and 2019.0.8 (and earlier) are affected by an Out-of-
    bounds Write vulnerability when parsing a specially crafted file. An unauthenticated attacker could
    leverage this vulnerability to achieve arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user.
    Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
