| Detailed Description |
The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Windows host is a version prior or equal to 2015.006.30461, 2017.011.30110, or 2019.010.20064. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
- An unspecified use after free vulnerability. An authenticated, local attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-16011)
- An unspecified elevation of privilege vulnerability. An authenticated, local attacker can exploit this to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2018-16018)
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of these conditions will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
