The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote macOS host is a version prior to 2015.006.30461, 2017.011.30110, or 2019.010.20064. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  • Adobe Acrobat and Reader versions 2019.008.20081 and earlier, 2019.008.20080 and earlier, 2019.008.20081 and earlier, 2017.011.30106 and earlier version, 2017.011.30105 and earlier version, 2015.006.30457 and earlier, and 2015.006.30456 and earlier have a buffer errors vulnerability. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2018-15987, CVE-2018-15998)

  • Adobe Acrobat and Reader versions 2019.008.20081 and earlier, 2019.008.20080 and earlier, 2019.008.20081 and earlier, 2017.011.30106 and earlier version, 2017.011.30105 and earlier version, 2015.006.30457 and earlier, and 2015.006.30456 and earlier have an untrusted pointer dereference vulnerability.
