A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the footerr functionality of Hancom Office 2020 HWord 11.0.0.7520. A specially crafted .doc file can lead to a use-after-free. An attacker can trick a user into opening a malformed file 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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
