CVE-2026-16781
MediumCVSS 5.5Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk1th percentile - higher than 1% of all known CVEs
Summary
A maliciously crafted SVG file parsed through Autodesk 3ds Max can trigger uncontrolled recursion. An attacker may exploit this to cause the application to terminate unexpectedly, resulting in denial of service.
Risk Assessment
The risk is that the application may crash, disrupting user workflows and potentially causing financial losses or project delays.
Recommendation
Avoid opening untrusted SVG files in Autodesk 3ds Max and apply security updates provided by the vendor.
