Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 22.002.20212 (and earlier) and 20.005.30381 (and earlier) are affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. 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 macOS host is a version prior to 20.005.30407 or 22.003.20258. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 22.002.20212 (and earlier) and 20.005.30381 (and earlier) are affected by a     Stack-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability 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. (CVE-2022-38450, CVE-2022-42339)

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 22.002.20212 (and earlier) and 20.005.30381 (and earlier) are affected by a     NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker could leverage this vulnerability to     achieve an application denial-of-service in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue     requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2022-35691)

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 22.002.20212 (and earlier) and 20.005.30381 (and earlier) are affected by a     Use After Free vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage     this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user     interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2022-38437)

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 22.002.20212 (and earlier) and 20.005.30381 (and earlier) are affected by an     out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could     leverage this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user     interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2022-38449, CVE-2022-42342)

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