Overview

CVE-2022-41306 is a Remote Code Execution vulnerability discovered in Autodesk Design Review's handling of Macintosh Pict (PCT) files. The vulnerability was discovered in late May 2022 and disclosed in October 2022. It affects Autodesk Design Review versions 2018 Hotfix 5 and earlier (Fortinet Blog).

Technical details

The vulnerability occurs during the decoding of Macintosh Pict (PCT) files in Autodesk Design Review.
