Summary

SumatraPDF 3.6.1 and earlier has a vulnerability in InitializePolicies() where the sumatrapdfrestrict.ini path starts with gPolicyRestrictions set to Perm::All and only ORs permission bits, so the INI file never revokes permissions. Deploying with this INI file, including malformed or zero-valued settings, can silently bypass configured disk, network, printing, registry, clipboard, preference, and fullscreen restrictions.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes bypassing security restrictions in deployment environments, potentially leading to unauthorized access to data or system resources.

Recommendation

Verify if the -restrict command-line path is used (which works correctly) and wait for an update, as no fixed version is available yet.

Original NVD description (English source)

SumatraPDF is a multi-format reader for Windows. In 3.6.1 and earlier, InitializePolicies() starts the sumatrapdfrestrict.ini path with gPolicyRestrictions set to Perm::All and only ORs permission bits, so the INI file never revokes permissions. Deploying SumatraPDF with this INI file, including a malformed file or zero-valued permission settings, can silently bypass configured disk, network, printing, registry, clipboard, preference, and fullscreen restrictions. The -restrict command-line path works correctly and is not affected. No fixed version is available as of this review.
