CVE-2026-3777
CWE-416Published: April 1, 2026· Updated: Apr 1, 2026
Official Description
The application does not properly validate the lifetime and validity of internal view cache pointers after JavaScript changes the document zoom and page state. When a script modifies the zoom property and then triggers a page change, the original view object may be destroyed while stale pointers are still kept and later dereferenced, which under crafted JavaScript and document structures can lead to a use-after-free condition and potentially allow arbitrary code execution.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-3777 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.

A successful exploit results in availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 5.5.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-416): Use-after-free vulnerabilities involve accessing memory after it has been freed, often enabling arbitrary code execution.
