According to its version, the Foxit PDF Editor application (previously named Foxit PhantomPDF) installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 11.2.5. It is, therefore affected by multiple vulnerabilities:
Addressed a potential issue where the application could be exposed to Use-after-Free vulnerability and crash, which could be exploited by attackers to execute remote code. This occurs due to the use of object or pointer that has been freed when executing certain JavaScripts in PDF files. (CVE-2022-43649) (CVE-2022-43649)
Addressed potential issues where the application could be exposed to Use-after-Free vulnerability and crash, which could be exploited by attackers to execute remote code.
