The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Windows host is a version prior to 20.005.30574 or 23.008.20533. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  • Acrobat Reader versions 20.005.30539, 23.008.20470 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-2024-20726, CVE-2024-20727, CVE-2024-20728)

  • Acrobat Reader versions 20.005.30539, 23.008.20470 and earlier are affected by a Use After Free 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-2024-20729, CVE-2024-20731, CVE-2024-20765)

  • Acrobat Reader versions 20.005.30539, 23.008.20470 and earlier are affected by an Integer Overflow 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-2024-20730)

  • Acrobat Reader versions 20.005.30539, 23.008.20470 and earlier are affected by an Improper Input Validation vulnerability that could lead to an application denial-of-service. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to cause the application to crash, resulting in a denial of service. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2024-20733)

  • Acrobat Reader versions 20.005.30539, 23.008.20470 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-2024-20734)

  • Acrobat Reader versions 20.005.30539, 23.008.20470 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-2024-20735, CVE-2024-20736, CVE-2024-20747, CVE-2024-20748, CVE-2024-20749)

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