The version of Adobe AIR installed on the remote Windows host is prior or equal to version 22.0.0.153. It is, therefore, affected by a man-in-the-middle (MitM) vulnerability due to the cleartext transmission of runtime analytics for AIR applications on Android. A MitM attacker can exploit this to disclose or tamper with the runtime analytics.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
