Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed Adobe Substance3D Painter versionOpen the application and navigate to Help > About, or check the installed version via the system installer or application metadataAffected if The version shown is 10.1.0 or earlier (any version prior to 10.1.1)
-

-
Assess file opening behaviorReview recent file open activity in the application - check logs, recent documents, or application usage history if availableAffected if The application was used to open files from untrusted or unknown sources since the vulnerability was disclosed
-
Verify patch statusCheck if Adobe Substance3D Painter has received any updates by opening the application and checking for updates via Help > Check for Updates, or via the Creative Cloud desktop applicationAffected if No update to version 10.1.1 or later is available or installed
