Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-66633 is an out-of-bounds read vulnerability (CWE-125) in the EMF functionality of Canva Affinity software. Published on 2026-03-17, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.1 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:L). The issue arises when processing a specially crafted EMF file, which triggers an out-of-bounds read that could potentially disclose sensitive information.

An attacker with local access can exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into opening a maliciously crafted EMF file through the affected Canva Affinity component. No special privileges are required, though the attack has low complexity and relies on user interaction. Successful exploitation enables high-impact confidentiality loss, such as memory contents leakage, with low availability impact and no integrity impact.

Mitigation details are available in vendor advisories, including the Cisco Talos Intelligence report at https://talosintelligence.com/vulnerability_reports/TALOS-2025-2313 (also at https://www.talosintelligence.com/vulnerability_reports/TALOS-2025-2313) and Canva's security update at https://trust.canva.com/?tcuUid=1f728b0d-17f3-4c9c-97e9-6662b769eb62. Security practitioners should consult these for patching instructions and workarounds.
