Low risk4th percentile - higher than 4% of all known CVEs
Summary
Lightroom Classic is affected by an Incorrect Authorization vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code, but exploitation requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. The scope is changed.
Risk Assessment
The risk is the potential for an attacker to gain control over the victim's system and execute malicious code, which could lead to data theft or malware installation. User interaction is required, reducing the likelihood of automated attacks.
Recommendation
It is recommended to immediately update Lightroom Classic to the latest patched version. Users should also be advised about the risks of opening files from untrusted sources.
