When the application opens a PDF file and JavaScript deletes the PDF fields, the subsequent logic still uses the old field pointers, resulting in invalid pointer references and causing the application to crash.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
