The version of Adobe After Effects installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 18.4.3, or 22.x prior to 22.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:
Multiple arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities exist in Adobe After Effects. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit these to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2021-43755, CVE-2021-44188)
Multiple privilege escalation vulnerabilities exist in Adobe After Effects. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this issue to escalate privileges. (CVE-2021-44189, CVE-2021-44190, CVE-2021-44191, CVE-2021-44192, CVE-2021-44193, CVE-2021-44194, CVE-2021-44195, CVE-2021-43027)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
