Autodesk Revit

CVE-2026-1289

A maliciously crafted PDF file, when parsed through certain Autodesk products, can force a Use-After-Free vulnerability. A malicious actor can leverage this vulnerability to cause a crash, disclose sensitive data, or execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.

What this means for your business

  • It affects Autodesk Revit. It matters if your company, or a supplier that handles your data, runs it.
  • An attacker can use it only with access to the machine itself, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.
  • FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.1% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 3% of all known flaws.

What to do

  1. 1Check whether your company or your suppliers run Autodesk Revit, and which version. The affected versions are listed further down this page.
  2. 2If you do, apply the vendor's fix. A patch or vendor advisory has been published.
