What is CVE-2026-3779?

The Foxit PDF Reader contains a use-after-free vulnerability due to the application's list box array logic retaining outdated references to page or form objects even after they are deleted or re-created. This flawed memory management can lead to a scenario where crafted documents trigger a use-after-free condition during calculations, potentially allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems.
