Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-2531 is a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in Luxion KeyShot that occurs during parsing of DAE files. The flaw stems from insufficient validation of the length of user-supplied data before it is copied into a heap buffer, enabling remote code execution. It affects installations of Luxion KeyShot and carries a CVSS score of 7.8.
An unauthenticated attacker can exploit the issue by convincing a target to open a malicious DAE file or visit a malicious page. Successful exploitation grants arbitrary code execution in the context of the current process.
The Zero Day Initiative advisory ZDI-25-174, originally tracked as ZDI-CAN-23704, describes the vulnerability and is the primary source of public details.
EPSS for the CVE rose from a low baseline to a recorded peak of 0.0125, indicating a measurable increase in exploitation interest after disclosure.
