The version of Adobe InDesign installed on the remote host is prior or equal to 16.4. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, as follows:

  • A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability caused by a null pointer dereference that can be exploited by an unauthenticated, local attacker. (CVE-2021-40743)

  • Multiple arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities that can be exploited by an unauthenticated, local attacker. (CVE-2021-42731, CVE-2021-42732)

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
