A use-after-free vulnerability exists within the way Ichitaro Word Processor 2022, version 1.0.1.57600, processes protected documents. A specially crafted document can trigger reuse of freed memory, which can lead to further memory corruption and potentially result in arbitrary code execution. An attacker can provide a malicious document to trigger this vulnerability.
Weakness
The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
