What is CVE-2024-9252?

The vulnerability arises from improper handling of AcroForms within Foxit PDF Reader, specifically due to a failure to validate the presence of an object before executing operations on it. This oversight permits remote attackers to enact an information disclosure attack by enticing users to visit a carefully crafted malicious webpage or to open a specifically designed harmful file.
