"According to its version, the Foxit PDF Reader application (previously named Foxit Reader) installed on the remote
Windows host is prior to 2024.2.2. It is, therefore affected by vulnerability:

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Foxit Reader 2024.2.0.25138. The vulnerability occurs
    due to improper certification validation of the updater executable before executing it. A low privilege
    user can trigger the update action which can result in unexpected elevation of privilege. (CVE-2024-29072)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
