We have observed the following access violation exception in the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC for Windows, when opening a malformed PDF file:

Notes:

- Reproduces on Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (2019.012.20035) on Windows 10, with and without PageHeap enabled (more cleanly with PageHeap, though).

- The crash occurs immediately after opening the PDF document, and is caused by an attempt to write data at a negative offset relative to a heap allocation (-56136 in the above case).

- Attached samples: poc.pdf (crashing file), original.pdf (original file).

- We have minimized the difference between the original and mutated files down to three bytes at offsets 0x2bd4c, 0x2bd4d and 0x2d5b8 (0x00 => 0xff in all cases). These bytes reside inside of a TrueType font stream.
