CVE-2026-57242: Foxit PDF Editor

High severity, CVSS 7.8. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The application opens the PDF, and JavaScript modifies the form. However, the related objects on the page lack complete lifecycle management and null value validation; when the page state changes, the application continuously dereferences invalid objects, eventually leading to a crash.
