This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Foxit PDF Reader. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the AFSpecial_KeystrokeEx method. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-17110.

An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute     arbitrary code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-17474. (CVE-2022-34874)

  - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of     Foxit PDF Reader 11.2.1.53537. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the     target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the handling     of ADBC objects. By performing actions in JavaScript, an attacker can trigger a read past the end of an     allocated object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute     arbitrary code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-16981. (CVE-2022-34875)

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