The version of Adobe Media Encoder installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 23.6.9, 24.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the APSB24-53 advisory.

  • Media Encoder versions 24.5, 23.6.8 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-2024-39377)

  • Media Encoder versions 24.5, 23.6.8 and earlier are affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability when parsing a crafted file, which could result in a read past the end of an allocated memory structure. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current user.
    Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
    (CVE-2024-41871)

  • Media Encoder versions 24.5, 23.6.8 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-2024-41870, CVE-2024-41872, CVE-2024-41873)

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