CVE_2018_9958
What it means
PDF JavaScript matches the public Foxit Reader 9.0.1.1049 annotation-UAF exploitation chain.
Why it fires
CVE-2018-9958 is an annotation point-property use-after-free in Foxit Reader. The exact public exploit allocates and destroys Text annotations, reclaims the 0x60-byte allocation with ArrayBuffer, uses Int32Array to disclose stale pointers, and triggers re-entry through a JavaScript getter. Requiring this complete chain avoids pinning generic annotation automation to the CVE.
