The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote macOS host is a version prior to 20.005.30524 or 23.006.20320. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

  • Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787) potentially leading to Arbitrary code execution (CVE-2023-26369)

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