In this paper, we study the properties of self-similar solutions of a cross-diffusion parabolic system. In particular, we find the Zeldovich–Barenblatt type solution to the cross diffusive system. The asymptotic behavior of self-similar solutions are analyzed for both the slow andfast diffusive regimes. It is shown that coefficients of the main term of the asymptotic of solution satisfy some system of nonlinear algebraicequations.
