Input Validation Flaw in Autodesk Installer Affecting System Stability

CVE-2026-14479

What is CVE-2026-14479?

The Autodesk Installer contains an input validation flaw in its IPC frame parser. When processing specially crafted input, the parser may not correctly validate the positional attributes specified, leading to potential out-of-bounds substring operations. Exploitation of this vulnerability could allow a malicious actor to induce an unexpected termination of the NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM service, subsequently resulting in a denial-of-service condition for the affected system.
