The version of Adobe FrameMaker installed on the remote Windows host is prior to Adobe FrameMaker 2020 16.0.5 / Adobe FrameMaker 2022 17.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the apsb23-06 advisory.
FrameMaker 2020 Update 4 (and earlier), 2022 (and earlier) are affected by a Use After Free vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2023-21584)
FrameMaker 2020 Update 4 (and earlier), 2022 (and earlier) are affected by an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user.
Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
(CVE-2023-21619, CVE-2023-21622)
FrameMaker 2020 Update 4 (and earlier), 2022 (and earlier) are affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2023-21620)
FrameMaker 2020 Update 4 (and earlier), 2022 (and earlier) are affected by an Improper Input Validation vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user.
Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
(CVE-2023-21621)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
