When Autodesk 3ds Max processes certain files, memory errors can occur. In such a context, attackers can often push and execute malicious code on PCs. The developers have now closed two such security vulnerabilities.
Securing PCs
As can be seen from the security section of the Autodesk website, attackers can trigger the malfunction through prepared JPG (CVE-2025-11795 “high”) or DWG files (CVE-2025-11797 “high”).
Version 2026 is threatened by this. The developers assure that they have closed the vulnerabilities in version 2026.3. Even though there are no attacks yet, the developers recommend a prompt update.
