The version of Adobe Media Encoder installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 15.4.1. It is, therefore, affected by an arbitrary code execution vulnerability due to invalid memory management. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary commands on an affected host.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
