Race Condition Vulnerability in Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop

CVE-2025-54271

What is CVE-2025-54271?

Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop versions 6.7.0.278 and earlier are vulnerable to a Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition. This flaw can be exploited by low-privileged attackers, allowing them to manipulate files by exploiting the window between the checking of a resource's state and its actual use. The potential for unauthorized file modifications poses a serious security risk, as exploitation does not require any user interaction, making it a stealthy vector for potential attacks.
