"The version of Adobe InDesign installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 19.5.2, 20.1.0. It is, therefore,
affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the APSB25-01 advisory.

  - InDesign Desktop versions ID20.0, ID19.5.1 and earlier are affected by an Integer Underflow (Wrap or
    Wraparound) 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-2025-21158)

  - InDesign Desktop versions ID20.0, ID19.5.1 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-2025-21121, CVE-2025-21157)

  - InDesign Desktop versions ID20.0, ID19.5.1 and earlier are affected by a Heap-based Buffer Overflow
    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-2025-21123)

  - InDesign Desktop versions ID20.0, ID19.5.1 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-2025-21124)

  - InDesign Desktop versions ID20.0, ID19.5.1 and earlier are affected by a NULL Pointer Dereference
    vulnerability that could result in an application denial-of-service. An attacker could exploit this
    vulnerability to crash the application, leading to a denial-of-service condition. Exploitation of this
    issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2025-21125)
