Acrobat Reader DC version 21.007.20099 (and earlier), 20.004.30017 (and earlier) and 17.011.30204 (and earlier) are affected by a use-after-free vulnerability in the processing of Format event actions 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.

The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Windows host is a version prior to 17.011.30207, 20.004.30020, or 21.011.20039. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
