## Overview

Foxit PDF Editor and Reader before 2025.2.1 allow signature spoofing via OCG. When Optional Content Groups (OCG) are supported, the state property of an OCG is runtime-only and not included in the digital signature computation buffer. An attacker can leverage JavaScript or PDF triggers to dynamically change the visibility of OCG content after signing (Post-Sign), allowing the visual content of a signed PDF to be modified without invalidating the signature. This may result in a mismatch between the signed content and what the signer or verifier sees, undermining the trustworthiness of the digital signature. The fixed versions are 2025.2.1, 14.0.1, and 13.2.1.

- `pdf_editor = 14.0.0.68868`
- `pdf_editor = 2025.1.0.66692`
- `pdf_editor = 2025.2.0.68868`
- `pdf_reader <= 2025.2.0.68868`
- `pdf_editor <= 13.2.0.23874`
- `pdf_editor >= 2023.1.0.15510, <= 2023.3.0.23028`
- `pdf_editor >= 2024.1.0.23997, <= 2024.4.1.27687`
- `pdf_editor = 14.0.0.33046`
